Overhead Console Assembly Replacement

[shaffin]

Hello,
I ordered an overhead console assembly replacement for my 2020 Mustang GT premium. There is a harness that clips in up inside the ceiling above where the console assembly is. Just wondering if anyone knows how to undo this clip. I am not talking about the metal clips that everyone struggles with but the electrical harness that clips in (i believe). Or does it just pull straight out? I checked the service manual and it doesn't detail anything, it just says to use a interior trim tool for removal.

Thanks

I know this is 4 years old, but I'm struggling with the exact same thing on a 2020 GT convertible. The harness for the map lights is tucked inside the plastic trim piece that mates up to the convertible handle.

The harness feels clipped into the plastic because it doesn't move at all. I have a replacement identical OHC and the harness has a track or clip that probably clips into the plastic to keep it secured.

Granted, mines not a vert. I just yanked on it & came right down

Thanks. I have OHC down, but the plug for the LED harness is not accessible. The console mates to a plastic trim on the convertibles that houses the wiring harnesses for the map lights, convertible switch, and some safety sensors.

It seems like the light harness plug clips into that plastic trim inside, but behind the opening for the console. It's not exposed, but the plug doesn't move at all when yanking on the harness.
