Title: Drivers side window switches
Post by: joeb on February 17, 2020, 08:23:10 am

Hey guys,

One of the window switches has came out of the drivers side master panel. Does the trim pop up and the old switch just slot back in, or is it more complicated than that?
I'm hoping that I can reuse the old one instead of buying a new set.

Cheers

Hi,
if the button has come off completely i would have thought its buggered. It might be worth popping the trim off and replacing the whole switch unit.

also a nice opportunity to get the silver tipped buttons :)
