Default Bose sub removal in a cab

Installing a SSK today and am stuck. Anyone know how to remove the Bose sub in the passenger footwell in a cab?

I am trying to reach the last screw holding in the center console, which is hidden behind the sub.

Looks like there is one large torx bolt holding it in, which I removed, but the sub assembly is not budging.

Thanks in advance for any tips.

Just grab it and pull it back towards the seats. It will then clear the metal tabs that secure it and can be then rotated away from the centerstack.

You pull it toward the passenger seat after the torx bolt is removed.

Also remove the clip from which you just removed the sub. It's in the way of the console when you tilt it up to pull it out.

Thanks all. More of a pain to get all the clips aligned during reinstall.
