Window Switches 700

Where? I read all day and could only find anything about how to fix them. I need to know how to remove them.

I read that FAQ for hours today (very interesting stuff, BTW) and I could not find this. I must have gotten near to it and been sidetracked by something, then later failed to return since I had "already been through that section" ... sheesh ...

********************

From the FAQ:

Removing the Switches.

Behind the switch cluster in the recessed area where the inner door lever lives there is as plastic screw. Turn it and pop it out. Now gently pull up that whole plastic trim piece in which the cluster rests. The switch block will come up and out of its mount point by gently prying up on the edge of the plate that the switches are mounted to. You may need to push at the carpeted trim that is behind the cluster to remove the plate. The switches snap into this plate from the underside. Gently push them out from the top or pull them out from the bottom. Disconnect wires and attatch to the new switch. Tips: be careful in removing the connectors and switches from the plastic carriers. It's best to first remove the red switch connector carrier assembly as a unit (two red tab locks on the ends and two in the middle, using a jewelers screwdriver to unlock the tabs), then remove the electrical connectors from the carrier. Then remove the switches from the top plate by carefully unlocking the tabs holding them in place and push up.

Doh! THANK YOU AND SORRY FOR WASTING THE BANDWIDTH!!!!
