A while back, there was a discussion on how to get the screws back into the bottom of the radio panel without removing the whole center console and gear surround.

some thought it was too much of a PITA to refit the one on the right, as access was very limited and it was impossible to see the whole. (until now winkeye )

With the aid of a small mirror placed in the ashtray area, it is a simple task to replace the offending screw using the reflection in the mirror.

Just thought i would share...
