Twist / remove the panel, so that the row with switches/dummy buttons is accessible.
The new switch must be fitted in the first available button location seen from the steering wheel.

Hint: In the cases where the switch shall be located furthest out in the button row, first remove the closest adjacent dummy to avoid damaging the centre
console panel:

Remove the penultimate dummy button in the button row by carefully prizing it out using two small screwdrivers as illustrated.
Note! Always prize against the surfaces that are subsequently covered by the gear selector lever panel (under the dotted line).
-
Carefully prize away the dummy button where the new switch shall be fitted. Use the thumb of your other hand to counterhold at the same time.
Note! Do not insert the screwdriver so far that the circuit board in the bottom is damaged.
