How to Remove the Ashtray of a 2007 Dodge Charger

The Dodge Charger debuted in 1966. Marketed as a muscle car, the Charger appealed to both young and old during its 12-year production run. Dodge manufactured a subcompact car bearing the Charger name from 1983 to 1987. In 2006, Chrysler brought back the full-size sedan, which adopted many styling cues from the 1960s Chargers. The third-generation Charger features a Chrysler 3.5-liter V-6 or Hemi V-8 engine and a number options and accessories. Although some accessories are nearly impossible to repair or replace, removal of the ashtray requires only a few basic tools.

Instructions

1

Pry up the chrome ring from around the shift lever using a tapered fiber stick or a small protected flat-blade screwdriver. Remove the ring, and set it aside.

2

Remove the rubber mat from the center console, and set it aside.

3

Remove the two screws that hold the shift lever bezel.

4

Pry up the shift lever bezel using a fiber stick or a small protected flat-blade screwdriver. Remove the bezel, and set it aside.

5

Apply the parking brake, and move the shift lever to "Drive."

6

Pry off the ashtray housing using a tapered fiber stick or small protected flat-blade screwdriver. The housing is held in with clips on the side; you may have to rock the housing slightly to slide it over the clips. Remove the housing, and set it aside.

7

If the Charger has heated seats, disconnect the wire harness to the switches. Tilt the ashtray, and remove it from the opening.
