MID Removal

MID Removal Procedure







The E39 MID is removed from the center console as follows:

1. Pull the volume knob off the MID.
2. Insert a T10 torx wrench into the recessed hole beneath the volume knob shaft.
3. Turn the wrench 90° to the left until a stop is felt.
4. While maintaining tension on the wrench in the stopped position use the torx wrench as a pull handle to pull the left side of the MID out of the center console. The right side of the MID acts as a hinge on the center console.

The radio/tape player is removed by turning the 2.5mm allen head bolts to unlatch it from the center console as on previous radios. The radio allen head bolts are visible once the MID is removed.
