TIP: Cracked climate control mounting instant fix!

Okay here's something useful for you all, don't know how many people have experienced this but:

 

a. The mounting for the hazard switch cracks off inside (stupid design) and the switch doesn't sit right and the front hangs off meaning it moves when you push the buttons. (pic a)

 

b. Cut some wrall plugs (however you spell it) as spacers/washers and use extra long screws, not too thick otherwise you'll split it. Tighten them up as shown in pic b

 

c. Check they fit and then mount the switch inside tightening the screws to full tightness, i used a little silver foil inside the holes to add something to bite into. (pic c)

 

d. If you get the size right, the switch will sit perfectly like mine and the front will click in tightly inside making the whole unit secure again.

 

Da da! Hope this helps! :D
