switch cover removal
Been a while since i've been on here. Taking the 2011 RT SE 5 apart for cleaning and painting the black plastic. I have not figured out how to remove the plastic peice around the rocker switches. I have the sides loose bolt in the middle by glove box I have 1 keeper can't figure out how to get it loose. Any help would be appriciated. Looking at the expolded view of parts shows a keeper but not sure how to get to it.

I believe that you need something called a "Carling tool"...
I used a couple of really small screwdrivers, and really just messed things up. :opps:

If you go to harbor freight, they have a small package of plastic panel tools for the cheap $$$. Haven't pulled my center rocker switches yet but have used them to pull other small pieces of plastics apart.

tools
:agree: with using the tools mentioned ..... However removing the surrounding panel isn't easy and requires a lot of Tupperware to be removed first ...... good luck .... Mike :thumbup:

Unfortunately the phots are not available but message Doc Riverside and he may be able to e mail a copy of them to you
The glove box removal to gain access to the switches is covered in the workshop manual and a CD copy can be purchased Via e bay, Well worth getting one if you intend to do a lot of your own work on your a Spyder

You need to take the entire glove box assembly off and then take it apart. There are screws down under it and kind of deep to get to.
