Removing Master Window Switch for W205?
Does anyone have instructions on how to remove the window switch in the drivers side? I saw a thread that had instructions in French but it says there is a screw on the trim. I don’t know what screw it’s talking about. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.

I just did this. No screws at all.
You need a very beefy plastic pry tool (or two). Start on the narrow end where the mirror switches are and begin prying up. There are tabs underneath on the opposite end that are oriented to hold that end in place, so you will need to pry and lift from the mirror switch end until you can lift out the whole switch pack.
On mine the tabs underneath that hold the switch plate to the bezel snapped off, causing the window switches to partially fall inside.

Thanks so much for your help diamondsilver16. One more question; am I lifting from the outside of the plastic trim that is around the switch or from the inside of the trim on the switch itself? I’ll post a pic to show you what I mean when I get back to my car.
thanks again
