Default Getting to blower control switch Back

Hoping STICKY see's this post as he seems to be the MAN on a lot of post on the crossfire, I need to get to the back of the control panel for the blower switch to check the connections, it was working then quit after putting a bomb off in car for bugs!! I don' t want to break any o the parts but think the spray got on the connections??

You have to remove the radio, there are 2 screws in there for the panel.

The radio is removed by using the 2 removal keys in the two vertical slots in the faceplate.
You can pick up a set of universal keys at Walmart.

The slots are horizontal by the way.
Remove the radio and unplug it.
Undo the two screws that are now just visible where the top front edge of the radio was. You should then be able to use a trim tool to carefully pry the bezel off starting at the top corners.
I'll add a couple of pictures to give you an idea.

I heard you slept hanging upside down from the rafters, so that fits.

As Dave ( onehundred80 ) pointed out, those are horizontal, not vertical slots.
