Just used this video and managed to replace my broken switch. Thank you for highlighting where the catches are. I used a very small screwdriver to push the plastic apart and then pulled out so the catches popped and released.
The replacement adjuster was bought from Aliexpress for £15. Not a great vid - acknowledged - but hopefully gives a hint, at least, of how this housing pops off. Quite a bit of fannying about also required to remove and replace the new adjuster...
Once you've done this how do you get the actual mirror switch unit out of the surround??? I've popped the switch upwards by squeezing the 2 metal retainer clips but then it just wobbles around in the surround and can't get it to manoeuvre out? Please help!!
@@evocraig2062 sorry, I can't remember having an issue like this. If you are replacing the switch, then maybe start breaking the old one up with a big pair of pliers or something. Sorry.
@@sokratiskotakidis8207 as per my video, there are small tabs on the unit. If you can push at least one of these in, then try and lever upwards. Not easy. Good luck!

Lol didn't expect a Belfast accent when looking for ways to fix this issue 😂
Exact same problem, just fitted it now but must've bought an EU/left hand drive switch as the only way it would fit was upside down like yours is
Me ajudou muito! Bem ruim de trocar.

Have you removed the electric plug from the switch?
@Gaz D Yes but can't get the switch out of the surround. Does the switch have to be split into 2 parts?

Lol you are from Norn Iron
i have the same issue. i cannot remove the plastic...
Get a sharp (preferably plastic) knife / something, get below it and force it UP. I used some plastic tools I had for fixing iPhone screens..
