The shifter surround/cup holder piece is held in by 4 screws, not only the two shown (1:45). The extra two screws are 1) under the shifter plate, in front are to the left of the shifter itself and 2) under the rubber pad at the bottom of the forward-most cupholder. The pad is a PITA to get out, but you have to work it out so you can get to that last screw. Also, the button bars that flank the CUE screen are a pain to get out (4:15). Each one has four clips: 2 on the outside and two on the inside between the CUE at the buttons. The outside ones are simple to pop, but you'll need a tiny, flathead screwdriver to pop the inner ones. And you'll have to work blind because it's not easy to see into the seam where the clips are. You need to remove these because the uppermost screws holding the CUE itself to the car are behind these switch modules.

The screw under the shifter plate tripped me up yesterday for a minute. I wish I would have read the comments. Nonetheless the video was instrumental in my success in replacing my screen. Thanks.

[@countingsheeple2428]

@@netdrifta Yes, I missed those screws, too.

Just got done doing this procedure. One more point that would save time, take off the trim panels on each side of the switch bars before attempting to remove them. The video shows that the switches come out first, but, DON'T DO IT. Thanks for your advice. Real time savers.

Followed this video today on a 2014 XTS and wanted to report that this went fine. Only issue I had was the shifter/cupholder. Getting this back in was very difficult because of the plastic guide under the front cupholder wouldn't fit in the right location.. Was quite a pain. Everything else was fine. Removed in ~35 minutes, put back together in about 20 minutes. Thanks for putting this together!

[@dyrreunshelvin]

Having that problem now.. What did u do to get it out?

[@chubbzy24153]

There are screws under the PRND panel and cup holders to

Been there done this and it was a pain finding a good video. If I found this one, it would have been easier. There is a lot of BS on line, even telling you that you have to remove the shifter and the seat. Obviously, not. I have the exact same year and model, this video was spot on. Be aware that if you replace the touchscreen, don't forget to remove the plastic on the back. Don't ask how I know.

[@TheElectVideos]

How did you get the shifter into neutral with the car and cue off? My XTS won't allow me to shut the car off while the shifter is in neutral. Thanks for the help.

[@KeithLaursen]

@@TheElectVideos Don't remember it being an issue but you could start car, pull shifter back and then turn off. In any event, we didn't take it off, just worked around it.

[@TheElectVideos]

@@KeithLaursen Thanks for the reply and info, Keith! I'm getting ready to do this install and I want to make sure I've identified all the possible pitfalls before I begin.

[@tunertech28]

thanks for the video pal, i've been trying to figure this out at my job, got held up at the ash tray

[@koltonsantana2236]

You prolly dont care at all but does anyone know a method to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me

@Kolton Santana Instablaster :)

[@koltonsantana2236]

@Rowan Elliott thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@Castrojhony]

Very good video my friend I have the same problem for second time $$$$$$$$

[@mikepruett1745]

Thank you were right on perfect

[@dyrreunshelvin]

This guy skipped a lot of screws

[@tss91994]

it would be helpful to show how to remove the plugs from the back of the radio. You skipped a lot of steps too.

[@LexLuther078]

So you pretty much need a shoe horn and a number 7 screwdriver and pop everything a loose,simple enough

[@dyrreunshelvin]

There is a screw up under the actual gear shift.. Lift the plastic part that has park reverse neutral and drive.. It's a screw under there.. This guy will drive you crazy trying to figure out why the gear shift isn't coming off

[@cassiefinch600]

Can anyone tell me how to remove just the cup holders on this exact model? I want to clean them so bad !

[@giomilan5884]

You missed 2 screws on inside cup holder and one under shifter

[@gurldatslac3059]

This gave me anxiety

[@sammyyounes8549]

Vary bad you don’t show everything you skip to show how to remove 2 screws
