    get a flat head behind it and pry it out, takes a bit of fiddling to come out since there are metal clips on both sides

    failing that you can take the dash cluster out and pop it out that way but thats a last resort

    dude just use a flat head screw driver or two... you will really have to rip it out and not be gentle about it cause it will be a bitch until you've done it a few times

    did it with my car a while ago so if you want any tips or anything just let me know as wiring it up to the back of the switch is harder than you think

    What?! lol

    Being an Spack shouldn't it have the wiring already there?

    When I put the lights on my Acclaim, all that was needed was to connect the lights to the front wires, behind the fog lights, swap over the headlight switch and install a relay in the engine bay fuse/relay compartment. No wiring or resistors? lol

    The more I hear about the differences between the Series 1 and 2, the more I'm thinking I got a Series 1 with a Series 2 badge, LOL.
