Removal From The Car

Push a flat bladed screwdriver into the back of the unit between the dash and the panel. As you push it will release a clip that is centrally located.

Lift the rear of the safety triangle up and pull it away, disconnect the 2 plugs underneath.

To refit, put the rear clip back in place, ensure no wires are trapped and push down on the front edge of the triangle so both the front clips click in place.
