I had to dismantle the center console of my Lexus because something dropped down inside the cupholder door/lid.
A google search showed this is quite a common problem with some difficult solutions. People had accidently let a key, a credit card, pens, and other things get down inside this thing which could not be opened from the bottom. Nor could these things get fished out.
But I'm telling you all this because the solution may be applicable to some other problems you may have.
Basically, I had to pry up the edges of very tightly fitted plastic parts without scratching them. A screwdriver would not work. Fortunately, I remembered that I had some Michelin tire levers for my bicycle tires. The levers have a very thin, very strong edge just perfect for this kind of prying. Here's a pic of the tire levers. The very thin edge is on the left end and pointed upward in the middle lever:
So if you have to do some dashboard work or pop out some close fitting parts that you don't want to damage with a screwdriver, I think this is one answer that is probably cheaper than the geniune Lexus prying tool.
And a bonus: I bought this vehicle used, so when I popped this open I was unsurprised to see a sticky mess from a coffee spill from more than 3 years ago.
