Hrw Heated Rear Window Button

[maple62]

Hi there,

I happened to press the HRW button this evening and the whole button disappeared into the dash! It looks like it sits on a bank of switches (passenger alarm or airbag??) and all switches dropped back by 1 cm. Can't seem to hook it back to see if it can be clipped back in...does anyone know what part of the dash needs to come our to possibly access it from behind?

It's a 2005 '55' plate..

Thanks

If the facelift didn't change the interior too much, the 2005 54 plate Avensis has the HRW button mounted on a long plastic strip that goes all the way to the passenger door. Starting at that end, it pulls towards you with clips at various intervals, nothing to actually undo. It's been a while since I removed (and successfully replaced) mine so you may want to canvas for more opinions before snapping yours in half.
