Replacing the Mirror Switch/convertable switch

I have tried to research the best way to lift the wood trim and replace the switch housing. Most of the videos are about removing the console. Do I have to do that in order to change the switch or is there an easier way?
thanks for your help. Gene

You pop off both side covers of the console, remove 3 screws on each side (they are the ones that are a little smaller and up higher than the others), remove the front lip of the cup holders, pop up the trim piece and remove it.
