Just broke my window button

[adood84]

Went out it , I just touched the rear passenegr window button and it snapped :confused: , maybe they broke it at the carwash , and it just needed little preusser to break it off completly :confused: , anyway going to the dealer tommorwo to get a new one I know that that each side comes togther in one pecie , how easy is it to install though?

Very very easy to install bro.

Where the gear lever is pull the leather up (the gaitor), this will reveal two screws. Unscrew those, pull the trimp up, unclip the wires under the switch, unclip the switch from the trim, and done. if you know what you're doing, it'll take 5 minutes, it's that easy

This is not uncommon as mine also broke in a similar fashion.
I bought one from a scrap yard for £10 and fitted it myself in under 10 mins as Fas described
