I have got front fog beamers [i][/i]and a rear fog light fitted. The push button switches are confusing as there is no difference between front and rear. As I barely use them I always forget which switch is for which light. I would like to turn the buttons by 90° south and north so it would be obvious which one is heading front or rear. Is this a simple operation or do I have to dismantle the whole dashboard? ![[Linked Image]](https://up.picr.de/40223375pv.jpeg)

I wouldn't say it was a simple job, when I had my indicator problem and seen behind the panel the switches are hard soldered onto a PCB. Depends on the age of the car I guess. Mine is 2014.

Thank you, Gordon.
Most likely we have a very similar dashboard - 2011 build
Maybe I better put an outside marker to the dashboard

Hannes international convention has symbols pointing to right to indicate rear and to the left, front.

You can just pull them out from the front with the EAO tool.. You can even print your own new graphics if you want.... ![[Linked Image]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/0my67zzuqnzfud9/EOA%20tool.jpg)

Clever stuff that Roger, I've always popped them apart 'on the bench' out of the dash

You are welcome Hannes.
It’s a useful tool to have if only for gaining access to the lamps.
