Hi im strugling a bit trying to get the bit of facia back on.



After instaling an aftermarket stereo, the top doesnt seem to want to go back in proprly.

Any tips or techniques? im worried to force anything.

Thanks,
Philster

Strange - it should just clip in nicely before you screw it down. The top clips on the side are sometimes a bit tight but will click in place with a firm even push if there is nothing in the way....but don't force it if you think something is in the way!

I can think of one possible source of snagging to check - The light feed to your fan slider is via a small piece of shaped perspex that sits between the forks of the lever (the front edge of which sticks through your knob  s:shock: :shock: s:shock: ).

Check that this isn't dangling & getting in the way (the perspex that is, not yer knob  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  ).

I found the fan slider got in the way a bit, there's a little white clip on it than can get damaged if you're not careful. I think you have to make sure this is 100% pushed on.

(If I remember rightly!)

I had the same problem last week. It was the plastic dangling from the slider. Make sure it is flush and horizontal with the lever and it has clicked into place.
