    Default how to dismantle foglight switch

    hey guys i just got a black foglight switch (converting from grey) and since ive had my leds changed to blue i wanted to swap the lights over, but i cant figure out how it comes apart i got to this stage:




    and i dont know where to go from here, i tried taking the front plate off of my old grey one but i didnt want to break anything so if anyone knows how to dismantle it, please do share

    thanks

    You are on the right track, Front control comes off mind you will need a good bit of force..

    Ok.. Pull the Light selector switch off it then just comes away.. To easy (unless you are heavy handed)

    Hopefully with the crappy picture supplied things will come to light.... pardon the pun :P

    ha ha clearly you've buggered something up.. got things around the wrong way maybe.. Still with time and patients I'm sure you'll nut it out.
