I just removed my cup holder and ashtray in my '95 to clean it out good. I just bought the car and they had kids. Anyway, I had to remove the center console by removing the screws in the bottom of the center compartment and then pulled off the trim around the shifter. This exposes the screws under the climate control that secure the center console in the front. I do not remember if I had to remove the trim piece around the radio to get to those screws. Anyway, remove the electrical connections and the whole console pulls right up. Then from underneath it you can get to the screws that hold on the ashtray and cup holder.
