Starter button

Need to replace the starter button on my 2016 jazz/fit just wandering if anyone has done this themselves and what's involved in getting to the rear of it to depress the two retaining clips

If you take the trim panel that goes around and under the steering off, you'll see an opening next to the switch.
Get a zip tie, and bend it so it has a curved shape. Feed that zip tie around the switch and tighten it when it's over the tabs. Push the tab you can see, with your finger while tightening the zip tie (it'll press the other tab).
At that point you can work the switch out of the dash. along the way you pull the cable out the back.
Install by sliding the switch partly in, plugging in the cable, and then pushing the switch in the rest of the way.

Thanks for the reply. Found a thread which showed you having to take half the dashboard apart and was not looking forward to doing that.
