removing dash to replace LED's

waronis · Jul 8th, 2009, 15:00

I am new in the forum and not sure if I should ask here. How do you open the dash to replace the led's above the radio. I have a 2000 V40.
Thank you,
Bill

Hi,

Asking this in the 700/900 section will likely not get an answer..

Moved to the 40 section, luck in fixing...

I don't know if your car is a phase 1 or a phase 2, but for the phase 1 cars all you do is pull out the control knobs for the heater/blower/direction (they're only push fit) and then get hold of the trim in the resulting holes and pull firmly but smoothly straight outwards.

Be warned though, the trim is a tight fit so you may find yourself flying over the seats if it suddenly pops out
