Hi all,

I'm having boot issues and I need to access the boot switch to test if it is working as the boot will not release using the handle. I have managed to manually release the boot however I'm having issues fully removing the plastic casing to get at the bolts to remove the exterer trim and access the switch.

Any suggestions? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks :D

Hi

Can you attach photos of the part you are having trouble removing?

Hi,

Sorry thought that I attached these in the last post :?

I am having problems removing the plastic covering because of the plastic arms that are through the red bracket of the boot.

Thanks
