Removing the Down Tubes

Does anyone have instructions on how to remove the down tubes? I'm replacing mine.

Thanks in advance for any help.

all depends on year model. but usually take out 2 bolts on each side pull up a little on the spedo and work it out if you have 05 or later you have to take the center console out i believe

Check this thread.

Also these instructions at MossMini are for installing a center console organizer. These tell how to remove the down tubes w/o removing the base. Not sure if this works for '05 and up however.
