removing heated seat switches on freelander 2004

hi guys, I have just bought a used centre front console, as couldn't find any switches on their own!
I just want to replace the heated seat switch on the drivers side.

Can anybody tell me how to take the switch out? I don't really want to take it out from the back, so hoping that I can take them out from the front!

Most switches, unfortunately, push out from behind... But I can't imagine it would be too difficult to release and raise the centre console?

the salvage place I bought it off said they come out from the front, just have to prize them out with a small screwdriver.

Hi Henry.
The easy solution would be to remove them from you purchased console, noting how they come out, but yes I would imagine the switch should prise out from the top using a thin small screw driver.

Just be careful not to mark the console, but yes, should be do-able

i always get a knife and lay it flat and with a twist they usually come out without damaging the face

Butter knife under the switch and lever forward, they come out easy and as the knife is flat and broad it won't mark your dash
