Very easy.  Here's a link to the parts schematic to give you some perspective.  https://www.gmpartscenter.net/auto-parts/2017/gmc/sierra-2500-hd/denali-trim/6-6l-v8-diesel-engine/body-cat/center-console-scat

 

First, you need to remove the top of the console - this is part#1 in the first picture in the link and comes out as a complete unit.  The best way is to open the latched storage cover and unsnap the light inside and move it to the side.  No need to disconnect the wires or anything.  Then take a trim tool (not a screw driver, or you'll scratch it) and part #1 off by inserting the tool between the vinyl and plastic in the area where the lid to the storage box closes down on the vinyl base.  You need to do it on both sides.  There are a series of metal clips that hold part #1 to the base of the console.  Start working from the back to the front, alternating sides.  The first time it may take a bit of cajoling to free things up, but it'll come.  Note that the wires to the outlets and plugs are still connected.  Your call whether you need to disconnect all of that or not, depending on what you are doing.

 

Now, scroll down to the bottom picture in the link.  you will see two screws that hold part #1 into bracket #2 in the schematic.  Remove those.

 

There are two covers on the sides at the back of the console near the floor.  Remove the covers then remove the bolts that connect to the bracket labeled #4.  

 

There are also two bolts under the rubber mat in the main storage compartment that need removed - they bolt into bracket #3.

 

That should do it.
