Has anyone seen details or instruction on how to remove the cool box and revert back to the traditional console storage? The box to me is a waste of space - pretty worthless.

I have been wondering this too, as well as if there’s any space under the high center console area. There must be an AC duct/vent in the cool box so not sure how to deal with that.
I've been hoping to find someone thats done it since we got ours and realized how little storage there is. I found this thread on the LC Forum (LC Forum- Cool Box) along with the attached document which is very discouraging as there are not just ac "air" lines, but rather what looks to be ac refridgerant lines. That may be more than I am willing to jump into right now. My wifes collection of things she never uses could just have to remain in cold storage.
You're gonna get a frozen margarita "to go" one of these days and wish you still had that tiny little box!!
I want to do the same. All I have found is this video.
From the looks of it there is refrigerant lines ran to it and RideaCanyon's PDF shows the same. You would have to discharge the whole system and cap. Seems like a hassle.

This is nuts. Just use the cool box for storage and live with slightly reduced capacity.
Well it wouldn't be nuts if it was way easier, but yeah...
It is nuts. I wanted a console safe though.
I agree 1000%

You make a great point - I could put the shaker in the cool box.

Please tell me that a real martini with gin and not one of the vodka abominations.
Hendricks is my go to, but I do occasionally buy a bottle of The Botanist to change things up.
Also thought I would throw this out to anyone who may also be a fan of bourbon. I picked up a bottle of Ironroot Harbinger after getting to taste it at Total Wine this past weekend. It's a local distillery in Denison, TX, about 30 miles from me. It's the first non-Kentucky bourbon that I've tasted and really like.
It's very smooth with some fruity notes and a mild spice finish. I recommend it.
My "retrofit concept" was to simply move the cool box from the console and place it in its own box behind the console and in front of the back seat. Like you all say, it looks pretty involved.
ROFLMAO
This went from a "removing cool box" to a Mixology posting.
