Krzys Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 Did some more destroying today Hazard light switch has bit the dust, well the surround has but it still works, ordered another one off eBay for a couple of quid so I'm not fussed! Just need to get that stubborn screw out and the console will be free! Slow progress but progress none the less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_broon Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 all sounds so familiar... I've snapped a couple of those door handle clips, my hazard light switch fell to bits, and the only time I managed to get the screws out of the console was once I'd got a ratchet screw driver and was able to put all my weight on it to stop it jumping out the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 I went to a mates house and showed him, the screw was getting quite rounded so we've just drilled the head off! Will replace the other one with a bolt and leave what's left of this one in place. Just left one screw holding the center console in place for tonight. No radio at present though but if tomorrow is dry then I'll be able to crack on with cutting the plastic at the back and get the new headunit plumbed in!
