Title: Replacing window switch
Post by: Lewo on June 10, 2018, 09:00:05 pm: Need to replace the front door passenger side switch. Had a look on Pelican parts for guide and as always things seem obvious and easy but is it for someone mechanically inept like me......?
Does anyone have the part number to hand and also recommend which and where to get relevant trim removing tools?

Thanks in advance.

I have the silverline trim removal tool set and thats more than you would need, its been very handy with lots of other jobs as well.
