Its not just you! The air bag light, I used a tiny flat screwdriver, looking from the back, on the right side, then an easy pull. After 30 mins. ,my wire cutters made the lighter a simple job. I brought it in an still can't figure it out. Butt connectors, crimp tool an its back together.(yes, it works...lol) I did figure out a short cut for replacing that damn ashtray, courtesy light. Remove the radio, reach in, an its a small squeeze connector. That was my day. Can't repair my ashtray, there is a small detente, for the catch, the side of the V had broke off.
Originally, I started out, putting the knockout for gear disengagement, back in place. Its spring loaded , before I knew it , the whole dash was in the floorboard.....
. Well it was a pretty day!
Looking at your pic. airbag catch is on the left.
