    All the time!!!
    I’ve looked and can’t find anything on a 12-15 4x4 selector switch removal, there are several on the 2nd gen, but none I can find on the 2.5 gen and they are different! Can someone tell me how it’s held in, or the removal process, and what you have to do? Thanks!!!

    Pretty sure you have to take the radio bezel out and release it from the inside. I took mine out when I swapped to a 12-15 radio/bezel set up.

    I took the radio cover off and couldn’t see anything around where the switch is, it’s all covered. I’m just not wanting to mess anything up when doing it. Thanks!

    Maybe you’re right but I swear I took it apart. I’m 100 percent sure that the 05-11s come out easily.

    Here’s one on eBay, with the switch removed. I wish I could recall how I did it.

    Ok! So you had to pull the complete cover off! Thanks! I thought you were saying just that that covers over the radio! My mix up! Thanks!
