Thanks all - going by what they sell for, going to leave it for now and just live with the crack. Don’t think it’s in a really noticeable location anyway, down the hazards/handbrake area. Lesson learnt, I cracked it as I removed it from the aluminium trim as part of the airbag deactivation work...

Cheers both - was hoping to get a used one for cheaper. May just repair what I have

Hi all, Looking for part number 51167041704 - brittle plastic meant mine has snapped. Could possibly plastic weld but wanted to see if I could source one first. Cheers

Edited image to try and highlight angle of hinge cutouts, to give you an idea of where to pull. Or just use the idea by @BumpyZ4 !

Thanks Bumpy, good idea.

Haha maybe - I’ve just ordered a K+DCAN cable, going to try and figure it out first

Hi Martin, could you point me in the right direction on coding? I read an old post and it said ISTA-P, how is that different to NCS Expert? Completely new to all this coding stuff, don’t have a cable and don’t know if my newish windows laptop would be compatible..

Cheers for the offer mate - would usually take it up but with a new job and young baby, just don’t have the headspace right now!

Hi all, Looking for someone who would be able to code the airbag deactivation on a 2003 E85 - according to @enuff_zed : “NCS Expert to code the SIM85” Happy to pay for the service of course. Cheers

Hope you’re well Ben. Think you’re right probably could have got to the screws without removing door, but it was pretty straightforward once you’ve got the right angle.

Hi Ben, reckon I could swing by yours to code the airbag deactivation switch and light? For a fee of course

You say easy Martin, but you've not seen me doing anything that requires patience and precision..lol

Bump - attempting this myself and will be making holes soon. Has anyone made the required holes in the centre console and side of of the dash where the airbag off switch goes? I'm not great at any precision work and want to avoid making too much of a hash job of it..

Done - hopefully didn't damage the microswitch, nothing seemed to be broken anyway! Once things are fitted I plan to write up a guide to retrofit the airbag off light and switch, as I've not come across one on this topic yet. Good news is that I've found the wiring, hidden below the carpet -...

Nvm just done it lol, had to angle it properly. Hopefully pic will be useful to others calculate angle too. Thanks Martin
