also, i printed the shop manual page. it does not seem to be of much use.
HELP - rear center console pocket
help me A5OC - i've run a cable through the center console to the storage area under the armrest, and through the little removable square panel in my 2015 A5 coupe.
this was made much easier by popping out the little pocket/shelf/storage panel at the very back of the center console, behind the armrest....you can see the hinges for the armrest when it is removed....here is a pic of the empty space.

i was using that red string to help fish my cable before i realized i could pop out the panel.
problem is, now i can't get the panel to stick back in, it seems like it just wont latch onto the top clips and works itself free as i drive. is there some trick to getting the clips to engage? it seems like i just have to shove it in there 1mm more, but it just won't go.
