Hope someone can help... Been thinking about changing my dash trim to a different design to what I have...

I did a trial run to see how easy to remove and managed to get passenger side off without problem but drivers side I managed to get one side unhinged but the side nearest the vent just wont budge... tried just about everything with my trim removal tools and even tried some brute force where you can hear the plastic warning me to stop before I snap but don't want to break anything...

I've removed the speedo unit for better access but still no joy

This is where I'm stuck

Any ideas?

I would try finding a schematic diagram somewhere to maybe help figure out what exactly holds everything on. Good luck.

Sooty, if anything fails get in touch with your Mini Dealer and see if the techs could print you a copy on how to remove the part since they also work behind the dash.
