May also find this useful for the Lightforce switch wiring info/how to pull apart your lower dash section.

*be careful with the clips I guess, a workmate fitted his over the weekend and said the trims are tight and he broke one of the clips

Check the attached pic, you sure this isn't a tab that needs to be levered with a flat screwdriver to release?

Your right mate it does lift up but also on the bottom. A very tight fit but once released it was easy. Thanks for all the input.

Just fitted mine, bugger of a job.
Trim panels very hard to remove as well as the usb cable as stated above.
Best advice is just follow the instructions provided and persivere.
