I am happy that there is an active Grady-White forum. This is my first GW and I have a lot of questions.

There is a Access Door and a Panel behind the Center Console Instrument Panel (see Attached Picture). Does anyone know how to remove the panel?

It appears to be there to provide access to the electronics. I cannot determine how it is fastened; possibly snaps.

I do not want to break anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you ever get the panel removed? I just purchased a 2017 Fisherman that has the same panel and I'm not sure how to remove it - Thanks!
 
Looks like you found a dead thread. While I don't have that boat, from the picture, there appears to be two ways it could be secured. Maybe at some point, someone with a similar setup will also respond, but in the meantime it's not too hard to figure out. Either it's snapped in place (not actual snaps, but similar function) or you could lift the panel upwards a bit and then swing the bottom edge out. Like I said, pretty easy to figure things out, though.

Thanks - I appreciate your response - I'll give it another look but always hesitant to pull on something too hard the first time.
 
I'm betting on lift the panel with 4 "Z Clips" for flush mounting. Can always shoot GW Cust Service via the web a question.
