How to do it in 10 minutes?
I have scoured the search facility on here about replacing the dreaded wiper park switch and it seems to take between 10 minutes and 2 hours. How is it done without having the dash on my lap?
Are the Puma/Td5 switches the same and has anyone got one i can buy if no longer needed? 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

The Puma dashboard is just a pain to get behind. With the centre console out and the screws holding the rest of it in removed you can pull the dash out just enough to get your hands behind. There's just enough room to get your fingers in and remove the switch.

Yes, the switch part appears to be the same.

Yes the switch is the same.

Not what you are after so just my opinion but I found it far easier to remove the screws holding the dash and being able to bring the dash out further than trying to do the job with limited space.
