Good plan. The last thing you want is them pulling the whole dash out,
'cos they won't put it back right.

Just a thought... probably a silly question, but you know it doesn't work
with the ignition off? (on my 1.6 anyway)

Perhaps it's telling you to give up the cigars? :-P

I have tried with ignition on and off.
also I do not smoke but I need it for something more important like the
origin B2 radar detector.
