It's not that it's difficult to remove but it takes a decent amount of time and to replace a light that will make a near 0 impact it's more effort than I'd certainly want to invest.

In the pics we had disassembled it to more easily run wiring for the radio and such. I installed a knockout panel inside of it that has connections for HDMI, AUX, and a couple USB ports. It could have been without doing it but made wire management and access with a dremel easier to cut the slot into the housing of it.

I also some spare sound dampening material on the outsides of the black plastic so it's sandwiched between that and the tan outer shell. Now if anything bounces around inside the console it's pretty quiet. No more hollow plastic sound!

If I were sound deadening the floor I'd probably go to to the effort to remove it if seats are also being pulled and have that much more access to the area. You're doing significant work as it is, an extra 30min of effort will improve overall access.

I don't want to doubt you but just to be thorough, on my 2004 the two little green lights showing which way the air flow is going on the rear panel only light up when the front control is set to REAR. And likewise, the active flow of the two green lights on the panel in the front only light up if it is set to one of the fan speeds at the front.

Yeah, I think those are replaceable units only and heat sealed, no screws in control units.
