With the car still under warranty, I gave my dealer the coin holder, explained that process and they did it for free. Probably only took them 5 minutes while they were doing a service anyway. That way if any wiring was disrupted, they could fix it - but it was no problem.
If we're talking about that small storage box section, it doesn't need to be accessed from below. Just a trim tool is needed to pop it off. Did it on my own 2023 230i 🙂
