12v socket removal from rear row panel...how???

Our D3 rear Aux socket has given up the ghost and I'm replacing it as an entire unit as this seems easiest. However, the replacement panel doesn't come with a 12v socket so I need to remove this from the current panel. But as much as I twist, pull and pinch it will not budge Twisted Evil . Can anyone enlighten me on how it's removed??

Cheers

Are there not tabs that need pushing in to allow it to put out forwards?

You can unscrew the whole AUX assembly and transfer it to the old unit if you look at the back of it. Wink

Thanks Narpy. Having spent half an hour twisting and pulling the 12v Rolling Eyes that solution is obvious, now you've said it!!

Cheers Thumbs Up

I think you have to release the metal tube from its sleeve (sometimes coloured, sometimes black) first; then remove the sleeve from the panel.
