Hello All
These photos might help...  Click image to enlarge Remove Torx Screws Click image to enlarge Pull back Console from the Top This may be enough to feed cables through, as I did wanting to pick up a live feed off the heated rear window for the installation of a 13 Pin Towing electrics. Click image to enlarge Pull fully Away Roll to one side (near side is easier) to reveal the 'full' rear wiring and controls. Good Luck SKIP https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic83242.html |

Thanks Skip.
it is not necessary to remove knobs and switches and no need to unplug the pins. |

Hello coxmax
No, two Torx Screws that's it. The centre console does locate itself in a few positions these are designed to release and then relocate when re-fixed. Pull gently and evenly across the top of the Console... 
Heater / Air Conditioning Controls Stay behind Clock and Push Buttons and Radio come forward Click image to enlarge SKIP https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic83242.html |

Great, thanks X4SKP and all of you...
Have any of you ever had problems fitting all the wiring back in place? Looks like a bunch of wires there 
I'll have a try next weekend! puma 2.2 MY2013 [:O]===[O:] |

There are times when you just have to bite the bullet and get stuck in, no end of questions and answers will cover all the possible permutations and possibilities
...just ask Zagato [only old timers here will have the faintest idea what that is about]  Steve.

Personally I'd recommend removing the HU first then the dash.
Otherwise you're much more likely to damage the HU, mounting or dash. Refitting I would do the reverse as you'll likely get trapped wires. |

It is just the 2 screws, I did mine this morning, slightly nervous but it came away pretty well. Replaced a few bulbs that had blown (that was more difficult, fiddly things
 )
Good luck |
