Default Power window switch replacement

Hi all.
Anyone know how to do this? Do I just pry up the bezel on the center consol holding the switches or are there any hidden screws or fasteners I need to be aware of?
Searched these and other forums and can't seem to find anything specific. Thanks in advance.

Try searching for short shift DIzy here or Renntech. This DIY shoes how to remove console. Once removed switches are easy to replace.

There are plastic 2 screws under the ashtray that you need to take out, then if you squeeze slightly the plastic at the top of the ashtray opening on the thinner side towards the centre you will see that it is clipped into place at that position and you should be able to pull it upwards, then you need to disconnect the wiring blocks at the switches, they just pull out, same if you have heated seat switches. Also there is a small light for the ashtray that you will need to disconnect. The switches should clip out with a bit of force (finger pressure) but it is easier if you use a very small screw driver to press the two clips at the side of the switch from the inside.
