Hey guy's, i have a question about the stereo fascia surround on a VP. I grabbed a Calais Fascia when i was at the wreckers. They line fine and everything i know that, but what i would like to know is- Can you take the buttons out, I.E the air-con button, the one that holds the immobiliser globes, and re-fit them to another Fascia? I ask because the Calais one was designed Climate Cont, and didnt have the globe hole. Ohyeah, and it says IRS:bang: so yeah, can i swap the buttons ...? I've looked and i cant figure it out...Guy at the wreckers said they just pop out....

they do pop out mate, have a look from the back and get in there with a flat blade screwdriver. pretty easy.

Oh yeah i can get the air con and light button out of the Exec Spec one, but the bit where it says RTS, and the Calais one dosent have buttons just bits of plasitc were the buttonns would have been. They like like there glued in atleast, and cant be removed and swapped with anything...Maybe im wrong..?

yea...those are blank spots. you carefully brake them out. i've done it a few times. attack the face part of where the switch would sit first with some pliers or a hacksaw or something then do the top and sides of where the button sits.

hope this helps

Hmmm, sounds like it could turn out a disaster if i ****ed it up...How were your end results after doing that?

exactly fine mate. looked exactly how it would if you popped the air con button and the immobiliser globe out.
