    Hello Everyone,
    I have a 2006 F430 Coupe with 'sticky' electric window switches.
    Can anyone advise as to how get them out with no resulting damage?
    I tried contacting Sticky-No-More but they were not able to help me.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Les

    As I recall first remove the radio using the two Becker keys, then the section of the dash containing the three center vents needs to be removed ( two screws in the radio compartment and a couple of screws under the F430 emblem on top, then the switches are unscrewed and removed from the back of that dash section. I don't have any good pictures but maybe these will help. The dash section to be removed is the carbon fiber section in the one picture and the second picture in the lower center are the two window switches. One is broken and was glued in previously. The other is intact. The actual switch is in a plastic bracket.

    I decided to end the sticky problem and removed all of the sticky parts and sent them off to Dave at StickyRX. He did a beautiful job on all the parts.
