HWH Panel Cover

A couple of the buttons had poked their way through, so it was time for a new one. Ours is mounted behind the dash, which requires you to remove the panel to do the swap.

                                                              


Release the cable retainers and detach the control cable. Ours had a rather dated style retainer, ones that are easily broken as they have long arms that extend off the PWA; be careful with those while the panel is out.

Once the cable is off, there are 4 nuts that hold the PWA to the dash; remove those and slide the control panel off and out. Ours was a snug fit on the bolts, so I had to walk it off a little at a time, moving from corner to corner.

Peel the old label off; most of the glue came off with the old label, but some was left behind, which I removed with goo gone. Next, peel the backing off the new label and stick it down. Be sure you have the panel and label oriented correctly; you don’t want to stick it down upside down :D

Slide it back on the posts, lightly secure the nuts (you don’t want to crack the panel), plug the cable back in, and swing the retainers back into place.
