Are you talking about the unit in the dash board or the console lid between the seats.If it is the counsole unit between the seats you can go to vette Essentials web sight and they have the instructions on how to replace the counsole lid.

It's pretty easy to do. Open the passenger door all the way and remove all the screws you can see. Open the glove box door and remove two plastic plugs in the bottom to access two "hidden" screws. Unplug the light and that's about it. Same to put it back in.

Just a quick note. If you open the passenger door, you will see a screw in the side of the dash panel. There is a long plastic piece on the right side of the glove box assembly that goes up in there and is secured with that screw.

Pay attention to how this piece slides in and go easy with the reassembly, otherwise, you may break this piece off (don't ask me how I know )
