Default center console removal

Hey folks, I'm trying to remove the center console in my 05 coupe. I have removed the shift ****, two screws on the passenger side, removed the e-brake cover and side molding on passenger side. I watched a video that said I should have two star screws in my console box next to the cigarette charger...I dont have those. The console cover is not budging....what am I missing?

The two screws are next to the power port in the console, see this from the How To section of this forum. https://www.corvetteforum.com/how-to...igation-368176 If yours has the tomb stone shaped cover that has the airbag deactivation indication in it, you need to remove it first to gain access to the screws.

Mine has the selective ride switch. How do you get that cover off?

Yep, forgot they put that switch there also, mine doesn't have selective ride so it has the airbag status indicator there instead. To remove the cover, just carefully pry up on the back of it (it's held on with a couple of clips), then when removing be careful not to break the tab off that's on the front of it.

There are clips up by the radio as well.

Can you tell where it's sticking?
