Hi All!,
Happy New Year and Best Wishes for 2024

Hope someone can assist me with this query , im replacing the dash and swopping over the glovebox lock and cant seem to undo the external bezel that holds the lock in place , all I can see is a very small hole and edge of bezel - thinking it was a small grub screw for Allen key - but that didnt seem to work

See photo attached

Thanks in advance for help

Nico

I believe it simply unscrews. That small hole might assist with the unscrewing.

There is a similar hole 180° opposed (on mine at least). Guess its just a case of improvising a tool to act on both to unscrew it.
