Ash Tray Removal
 
Okay, Kinda embarrased. How do you remove the ash tray? Its not full of ashes to dump out or anything, just trying to see how it comes out.

Thank you,
Kevin C

Push the center tab down that is inside and catches at the top, then pull it out.

Tried that. I have it depressed as far down as it goes, but just won't tilt out. May just need to get more agressive with it.

Thank you,
Kevin C

If it opens and closes normally then it should just slide right out hen the tab is depressed. That's really all that's holding it in place.

This is an old thread but I can't get the ashtray out of my 64. What am I missing?

After you push down the tab and pull it out just a little, lift it up and out.

You first have to remove the windshield. Then drill out all the spot welds to remove the dash, and then.... ;)

It has a bad design flaw.
Try doing it with it full of butts.

Have quit smoking now so only gum wrappers now.
Not as messy to clean up.

I 3D printed a plate to hold switches and a usb charger to replace the ashtray...
