Its a pain in the ***. Jewlers screwdrivers come in handy. Just be careful, if you look closly at it, is pretty self explanitory.

The defrost button actually slides out of that larger piece, and the bulb twists out the side. There are 3 or 4 tabs you have to push in to get the button out.

Yep thats true. Figured that out already.

Done bitches.

Edit: Damn, just pluged in the defrost button without the housing for the bulb, and now the button doesnt work. Does anyone know how to pull out the tiny little bulb out of its tiny little housing? I tried to twist it with no luck. Is there any trick to this?

Edit yet again: The little bulb is held in by the wire which is wrapped around the housing, now i hope the button lights up now after messing with this ****.
