Cheap! These are quite hard to fit though aren't they? Window switch was easy enough but I think for fuel release the whole door trim needs removing

I managed to fit this without removing the door panel. I levered up the little panel that this switch sits in, and unclip that way. Wasn't hard, was a little diddly, and just had to be careful I didn't snap anythign

You can change the switch by releasing the bottom of the door card but only if you have small hands

Is it possible to get these switches and things in a brushed steel / aluminium at all or are they only available in chrome?
