Well my ashtray is stuck and I can’t seem to get it open. I use it for change. It opens a little but not much further. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Depending on what you have in there, something could be preventing it from opening by hitting the area above the ashtray on the center console. Take a clothes hanger and bend it at like 90 degrees and try to fish your way around in there to see if you can feel anything in the way and knock it loose. HTH
