Default How to remove the cover of the steering wheel?

Hi all

I would like to remove the upper and lower plastic cover of the steering wheel. I found two screws underneath. But removing them didn't really help (at least I didn't really realized any change).

Can anyone help? The reason why is because I need to check the left indicator switch.

Thanks!

Good. Glad you got it. I hope you were gentle and "guessed correctly". Doing it wrong will break those tabs in a heartbeat. I should check those instructions out myself. Good find - thanks.


Jeez - only 45K miles? I've got FOUR times that. Listen: Rolling your XKR up and down the driveway does NOT constitute "Driving"! Get that thing on the road, son. :-)


Ciao! - Jim M

Hi Jim

Haha, well. I live in Switzerland. This country is so small that driving more than up and down the driveway means I'm already in the middle of France, Germany or Italy :-)
