Remove hatch release from carpeting
 
I've been fiddling with trying to get the rear hatch switches out so I can wash the carpeting and I'm having difficulty figuring out how these come apart. Here is a photo (with the cap removed). I thought I just unscrewed them, but something isn't releasing. Any advice?

Thanks.

The knob will unscrew from the metal shaft. Then the plastic base will also unscrew. Then the switch can be removed from underneath

Lift up the knob and you will observe a hole in the metal shaft. Place a pick in the hole and spin the rubber knob off.

That did the trick, thanks!

As already mentioned the parts just unscrew.

Did the same myself a few weeks back and grabbed this photo that might help ...

On a similar note, anyone figure out a way to make the little car white again? I suppose someone with artistic talent might be able to paint it or something.

Do some searching for stickers. I seem to remember someone even made a sticker that looked like the 928 profile.

Roger used to have the knob: 928sRus.

Hatch Switch Cap with symbol 928 613 437 00 70B = $3.99

Perfect and affordable! I've got some other bits to place with Roger so I'll pile into that order.

Thanks,
Dustin
