Thanks for the help, much appreciated

Ford and there dreaded thread-locker. The ones that hold the console to the dash have thread-lock on them. They can be a bear to get out. You have to have a real good #2 phillips screwdriver with a good grip. Put all of your weight into the screwdriver and twist it to the left as hard as you can. If it strips out you will have to cut a slot in it with your dremel and use a #3 flathead screwdriver to get it loose.
