How do you get to center switches

Ok this may be the stupidest post I've ever made but here goes.

I installed an LED light bar today - stealth behind the lower grill. Install went fine. Wiring the bar to power a snap. Relay mounted, wire through the fire wall fine and then I hit a wall. Intending to wire it to a Mictuning switch in the center dash. My TRD has two spots vacant. How the hell do I access them though? Gave up as it was over 90 in the garage but there has to be a trick to it but try as I might I'm stumped.

Holy crap.

Remove cluster surround, radio, ac controls and stick fingers in. It is tight (giggity) but doable.

 

You could remove the blanks with a thin n smooth butter knife...and fish the wire, hopefully not cutting or yanking anything unseen...

 

Thanks all. I'm going to try the last idea as the disassembly route is way more than I had in mind.

 

Remove the Air Conditioner controls at least...

 

Saw the latest too late but all good. Used a dental pick tool to get dummy switch plate out. Fishes a stiff wire through, taped my wires it it and pulled them out the hole. Soldered the Mictuning switch in and snapped it in place. Voila!
