Front Cigarette Socket - Removal

Post by JoeC » Tue Sep 12, 2017 5:57 pm

How is the front cigarette socket held in please?
I need to remove it to check in-built fuse wire and finding it very hard to get to and hence do not know how it is held in.

Thanks.
Joe

If anyone can miss the bleedin' obvious it'll be me :lol:

My lateral thinking solution has been to leave the front one alone and just stick new sockets all around the Bongo. Current count is six and one DIN socket! \:D/
