I can't tell you how much I appreciate your video. I almost figured it out myself, but watching the video made me more confident. I only disconnected one big harness and could have done it even without that. I had a pen and dental floss pick inside.

Thank you 🙏🏼 sooo much for making this video!!! I just got my debit card 💳 stuck in that place where the pens were, and I can’t get it out, and it’s jamming my lid so it won’t open all the way… now I know what I need to do. GOD bliss you for making & posting this video ❤️

I used this video to help me get my jammed credit card out. I have a 2010 Lexus RX350. I didn't have to pull out any wires just had to pull the cover up and turned it over and used small tweezers to get the jammed card out. Thank you for the video.

Excellent vid! Hope the customer puts their pens someplace else or they will be back again.

[@Tech-28]

Ya, they wont be putting them there again that's for sure.

Great big help. Thanks. Just fixed mine in 5 minutes. Easy when someone shows you how. Thanks.

[@Tech-28]

Glad to help :)

[@davidfrankel9267]

Very helpful video. Stupid design. Same pen stuck back there. Appreciate the help.

[@Cravenn5]

Wowee 💆🏽‍♀️ I thought it would be an easy fix.,back to the dealership something I definitely can’t do 😅 great informative video❣️

[@scottmacgregor9023]

Thank you, that was fast, didn’t need to remove the white fastners just the seat warmer, and antiskid electronics and flip in place. 5 screws with a p2 (fatter head phillips)

I got a pen stuck in there and it wouldn't open all the way , this video is very helpful , too bad I had to figure out on my own and didn't see this till now

[@wat6592]

it took yall like 10 mins it took me like 20 mins 😭

[@wat6592]

luckily mine wasn't close to being as dirty and mines a 2012

[@wat6592]

I didn't even remove the wires either which was why it probably took longer

[@tpp4007]

You can also shift the car into neutral to get the center console out easier next time

[@Tech-28]

Nice tip, thanks!

[@JG_UK]

Thank you for making this very useful video

[@AA-uh4sq]

Thank you man 👍🏻👍🏻

[@HoneyBee301-k8d]

I got the same problem with my RX 350 2010

[@jamescarter3514]

I took mine off without removing all the wiring- just turned it sideways and took out 5 screws,

[@purplerose9041]

After bringing my RX350 to an auto detail wash, the lid was stuck (doesn’t open completely). Is there any other ways to check to see what’s stuck below the cup holder without removing the whole thing out? As a female owner, what you have done to fix the issue is beyond my ability 😊. I guess I have to bring mine to a Lexus dealer 😢.

[@Tech-28]

You could use a video scope if you can get your hand on one, but your pretty much gonna have to take it apart. It’s easy to do if your willing to learn and give it a try

[@purplerose9041]

@@Tech-28 Thank you. I think I am going to give it try. Called Lexus dealer and they said it would cost between $245 -$450 to fix that as they don’t know how long it would take.

[@Tech-28]

Go for it :) I have faith in you. Just follow along with the video and if you have any troubles just come back here and I’ll help you out
