Console safe removal

I just bought a2024 TRD Off Road and already decided that the console safe is a no go for me. After removing the two bolts the safe will not budge from the console. The console is loose, but the safe will not budge. Has anyone else had this issue?

 

Remove carpet from the bottom of the safe, remove two bolts. Slide safe out.

You removed the bolts under the carpet, right? If so, apply a little pressure when pulling it out.

 

After removing the bolts the console was loose, but the safe would not budge.

 

Hold console down and put some muscle into it.

 

Is it stuck under a lip somewhere on the console? If you haven't already, try moving it forward and back or side to side before pulling up.

 

Finally!!!
It took a lot more than I had by myself. My wife held the console down and I cautiously pulled. No damage to console lid or precious wife. Thank y’all.
