Does anyone know how to remove the overhead console on a 2010 Eddie Baurer?
I don't see any screws and I don't want to break anything trying to pull it down.

Could you grab a picture of the overhead console? Or does it have the sunglass and garage door opener compartments?
 






This video might help since the Sport Trac and Explorer have very similar interiors.

 






open the sunglass holder and remove the 1 screw, then PULL.

This is why i like to see pictures on a lot of the overhead consoles there is a screw under a cover where a garage door opender would go. This is what i have and what was posted above.

From looking at pictures online you don't have any screws to remove. There is just a couple of body clips holding it in. You just need to pull down the back side and the possibly slide it back once the clips are out. Reference the picture below for placement of these clips.

Thank you so much for all of your help.
 






I have a 2009 Eddie Bauer Explorer with overhead console, no sunroof and a compartment for sunglasses and a panel with 3 buttons to program garage door to vehicle, and a panel with two control knobs for HVAC to rear passenger area. THERE IS NO SCREW in any compartment anywhere! I too fear just pulling down will break some plastic somewhere. Can anyone confirm this over head console is ONLY HELD in place with clips and NO SCREWS. I am at my wits end! ps: the problem is the plastic locking device that holds the sunglasses door shut broke! Now it jsut hangs down! HELP! (SEE PICS) It appears the Homelink compartment panel should drop down on this model. I bet there may be 1 screw inside that compartment as heavy downwrd force does not allow OHC to drop done!).
