hi, im trying to replace my brake light switch, i've removed all the screws from the bottom dash cover to get to it including:
1. bottom plastic screw
2. 3 screws under knee bolster
3. undone the screw behind the parking brake
4. removed screw holding bonnet release handle (red)
the cover on the left side is completely loose but i just cant figure out how to get it past the red bonnet release handle. there is a screw holding the red handle in, i have undone that and pulled the handle out about an inch from where the cable cover inserts, which leaves the handle dangling slightly, but how would this dash cover get past this handle? loads of people seem to have done it but am i missing a trick here? does the red handle disconnect from the bonnet release cable? please help, all 3 of my brake lights are permenantly on and i need to replace the BLS asap. thanks
