It's on pages 8-24 & 8-25 of my 2012 owners manual.

The problem with doing this is that you basically have to reset everything in the car. All of your personal settings (homelink, menus, phone book, temp settings, etc.) are on it. Ask those who took delivery of their car with it pulled. Every time you start the car it goes back to default settings.
Now, I don't know if you pulled it
after you shut the car off and then engaged it
before you started it if that would save all the settings or not, but I'd hate to try only find out that it didn't.
