How can I remove the USB/12V/3.5mm panel?

Unread post by Lecit »

Hello,

The car is Citroen C1 Mk2

I want to see what happened to the cabling behind the 3.5mm (someone accidentally applied too much vertical force on an aux cable that was plugged in and ruined it).

This is the panel I'm talking about: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/333885297187

When I try to take the panel out by pulling it, I can hear the bottom 2 clips releasing, however it gets stuck on the top part. Looks like there are flaps/pins under the bigger dashboard and I don't want to break anything

Will I need to actually disassemble everything around it? i.e. the radio panel as well? Or it's something simpler

Thanks

I'm confused why you're linking to an item on eBay that is stated as being for a Toyota Aygo? But if you're wondering what holds it in, why not ask the seller in the eBay listing for pictures of the back of that panel, and use that to give you a clue what holds it in?

The Citroen C1, Peugeot 107 and Toyota Aygo are basically the same car with different badges.

You'll have to take the fascia off I think in order to get behind it to access the the AUX / USB assembly.
