Fog light switch removal

[rain164845]

Does anyone know how to remove the panel down so that I can get to the dog light switch?
Thanks!

That front panel has to come off. IIRC ,there are 4 screws holding it in place. One just above the headlight switch. One just above the cigarette lighter and 2 on the underside area above the cluster. Next, pull that spacer off that sits below the steering wheel (it is only cosmetic and is held in place with friction). Last, grab the right side of the panel and pull it free. There should be 2-3 friction clips holding it in place so steady pressure should cause it to release. Once that panel is off it will become obvious how the switch areas are removed

Yep, what he said!! Look under the upper surface of the bezel. You should see two in the instrument cluster section, and one each over the left side panel and over over the clock. The bezel is a tight fit pulling it out as it hits the steering column. You may want to loosen the column bolts to drop it a bit and give you more room.

Once the panel is off, there is a single screw on the left.

Whatcha trying to do? The switch itself just snaps into the panel. You can remove the switch by unplugging the wiring to it, then squeezing the tabs on the top/bottom of the switch. Getting your finger or levering a screwdriver in the right spot to get the top side is the challenge though.

ack, forgot those last two (clock/left side panel). That makes 6 screws you should be looking for.
