the part where the aircon dials are?

its been about 4 or 5 years since i changed one, but heres what i remember of it.

remove the glove box, should be a wire going across to a white clip. open the clip, remove wire. from memory theres a few retaining screws, try removing the ash tray and little rubber mat underneath. cant recall the exact position. then prise it away from the rest of the dash, it clips into place, but dont pull to hard as there are aircon hoses connected to the fascia.

on my series 3 there are 2 bolts behind the headunit and then it just pulls out, just needs a good yank out.
