Is there an easy way out of Park?

Looking forward to the imminent departure of my scrap D3.

When it was parked up it was left in park, there is very little in the way on an interior.
Anyone tell me how to get it out of Park
I have a brake switch and battery still good.

Need it to roll to be able to move it

Am I missing something or is there something that needs disconnected

Park is a mechanical thing? Do you still have the gear lever in the car?

If you lift up the gear surround, there is a white plastic square at the front right. Press that down.
and then press the button on the handle and it will come out of park.


I've actually drilled a small hole in my plastic trim, so I can put a rod down their at service.

white tab can be seen here

Another solution to the same problem, if you lift up the small black panel behind the park brake switch you can reach a finger in and lift the white tab behind the gear lever which will release it as well.
