This project for me has turned into a nightmare of sorts on my 2020 Custom. The damn bolts are tightened down so much that I ended up stripping one of the bolts that secures the drivers seat and I had to drill it out some in order to get the torx bit to go deep enough to get a better bite. Then I get the bolt out for the seat belt with no issue, but there is some type of thin metal circular retainer that prevents you from actually removing the seat belt anchor. I ended up bending that into a tight circle so I could then slip the anchor out and over it. Now I'm trying to remove the two bolts right above the console belt anchor and I got one loose but I stripped the other one again so I'm going to have to drill that one as well to get a better grip. I don't have an impact wrench. Is this why I'm having trouble with these bolts? I'm just using a hand socket. Edit: Drilling was a no go on the one driver side console Torx bolt above where the lower bet attaches. I stripped the one and can't get loose. I mean, I never even got it to break the seal with the socket set. Its still as tight as the day it came from the factory and its totally stripped now so I'm not sure what I'll do from this point forward. I've put the truck back together for now. I may be listing a a new top lid center console on the cheap.
