How does one go about removing the dimmer switch on xcv70. My radio, and message readout panel are dim, when I try to move to dial the out neithers brighten or darken. Thanks

You're about a year to new to ask that question here.
We all have OLD cars in this section of MVS...'92 - 2000's.

P2's are entirely different cars. Best of luck! :mrgreen:

I moved your post to the 2001+ forum, where you'll hopefully get a knowledgeable answer.

Most of the switches/vents can be (carefully) pried out from the back using a small flathead screwdriver.
