Especially those shitty ones for the headlights and fan/rear heater. Grrr. Anyone got any good tips for getting them to come off (without breaking them!) At the moment i'm just poking around randomly with a screwdriver. Any help appreciated.

Cheers Nesh

For the heated rear knob, pull it out as if turning on the heated rear. In the bottom of the shaft you will see a hole, push a small screwdriver into this hole while pulling the knob. It releases a clip and the knob should pull off. Works for the air con knob too.

Thanks, have tried but to no avail. I've managed to break the light one in the past. However, i've had the heated one off before so i'll keep trying! Any tips like what angle to put screwdriver in? I've been trying for like 15 mins lol. Cheers.

Headlight knob is same method. Switch the knob to the 12 o clock position and pull it out as if to turn on interior light. Push a screwdriver in the hole in the bottom, this will release the clip holding it on.

The headlight knob - If you pull it so the interior light comes on and look underneath it, u will see a small hole, poke a small screw driver up that hole and it shud unclip it

Middle Heater Knob - same as ^^^^^

The two either side of the middle one - shud just pull off!

If u want the the slidy clip off, just knock the clip of that slides left and right, then poke a knife in the side and it shud just clip off, there are some screws behind the slidy thing surround.

Hope this helps, otherwise I think they are in help and tutorials

Push it straight in. It might help to move the end about a bit while its in the hole. You need to keep pulling gently on the knob at the same time though.
