Default Merc A class help

I've had a search around and I'm trying to get a idea of how to get at the instrument panel off to change a bulb, can I find anything on the tinternet, can I bugger.

Oh baybenz site was no help, can't even find the microfiche.

Shouldnt be too hard. Screws are usualy hidden behind other things, or little pannels

Does it just pull out ?

mine has 2 very thin slots on each side, and using a special tool (rather like a thin L shaped wire coat hanger) you just pull it out

Take a Triumph bike as an example: Mercs are slightly better built, Renaults are even worse.

Ah.. I'll have to have a look to see if I can work that out. I did try to see if it was some sort of slot affair but couldn't see anything like that.
