I broke the shaft on 4 different air con switches trying to get that damned knob off and I still aint mastered it. Gets bloody expensive too as they are not replacable and you need to buy the complete unit :(

I was thinking of doing my console silver and my knobs blue too! Can you post pictures up when you've finished it?

right depending on the age of you car its the white bit right?

two small screws at the front or a retaining lug above the three controls

hope this helps the screws are behind the controls--i think outer two knobs just pull off

the lug is at the back i think
