Thought I'd post this solution as I was looking at having to pull my centre console apart, but this method only took under 10mins.
No idea why, but I placed my credit card on the sliding lid. Later I opened the lid and the card fell into the bowels of the centre console. I assumed the lid slide at the same level, but after reading up, the lid rolls around like the blinds on the top of your spring-loaded house blinds.
I tried for 20 mins to get my fingers up the sides where the console meets the carpet (with the seats rolled fully forward) with no luck.
Went to the $2 store and bought a floppy plastic 30cm ruler for $1 and a $2 roll of 18mm double-sided tape.
Stuck two pieces on the end (approx. 80mm long) and jiggled that around. Got a business card out, but no credit card to be found.
I then tried with 2 more pieces of double-sided tape, but this time half of it was overhanging the ruler (for more floppiness/flexibility). So 40mm tape on the ruler and the other 40mm. This worked first go!
Good luck!
