Default Re: SKREEM Conumdrum!

Do I epoxy that black ring in place so it doesn't move again? It turns about 1/4" left and right. Should I remove the spring and pin under the little trap door?

Side note: Installed new seat relay, while I could get at it, and the seat works again.

The antenna ring pops on and can move a little bit. It is attached to the skreem. If you glue it on there then you will have to break it off later. I think Mercedes still sells them. When it comes to ignition switch situation, yes finish performing the sticky key fix so this doesn't happen again.
