    Gents,

    Have a new overlay to put on my HVAC panel and also need to retrieve my mirror switch that fell out of the console panel. The WSM has no procedure so I'm wondering if anyone can advise me on getting the panel(s) out. It seems as if they just pop out but I don't want to force anything. Thanks in advance!

    I have not removed my A/C control panel, but I have removed the ash tray and the gear selector cover to do some radio wiring. That seemed to give some extra access to the back side of the A/C control panel area.

    Let me know how it works. I need to put an overlay on mine, too.

    Maybe, take a picture when your done.

    Good luck
    Jerry

    From my experience (RHD car) the HVAC unit is just pushed into place. Remove the ash tray , one stew in the base. Reach in and push the HVAC up, which I would like to assume is the same for the LHD cars even with the ashtray in a different location.

    Thanks fellas. I'll have a go at it and let you know how I get on. I can't seem to post pics here unless I go back to a subscription status here again unless maybe I can delete some old pics I've posted over the years? Either way, I'LL report back on it!
