skahigh Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Hi guys, Have just been and taken my dash apart partly as I was trying to remove the cubby cover and partly because I'm thinking of changing the head unit and thought I'd have a poke around and see how it works. I followed this guide and all was going well until I got to step 13 removing the white wire clip for the oil/battery gauges. No matter what I tried I just couldn't get this unclipped pinching, squeezing pulling (hard!). Anybody else had issues with this clip or got any tips/suggestions? Appreciate any help. Thanks. Quote

flyboy Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Just push in the connector latch with a small screw driver fiddly the first time but then you will get used to it. I find it helps to get my head up by the windscreen to see what I am doing. Quote

Yep I tried this too but it still didn't budge Is the connector latch on the windscreen side or on the side towards the rear of the car? Quote

From what I remember the actual clip faces upwards and is towards the windscreen side, but it is very stiff and I couldn't get my head round enough to see it. Quote
BulletMagnet Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Take you mobile phone and use the camera as if you were taking a selfie and then put it up between gauges and windscreen so you can see what you are doing Quote

skahigh Posted March 11, 2014 Author Posted March 11, 2014 Yep I actually did this but I think it's just really stiff, I'll try using pliers or tweezers to pinch and pull the connection as bare fingers doesn't seem to work for me. Quote
