Default Passenger Window Switch

Hello guys,

Brought my car into tint the other day. Got it back and the passenger Window Switch is out of place, place that did it won't own up to it. How would I get it back into place, do I have to take apart the whole panel? Or is there a way to push it back into position?

Thanks

A picture would be worth a thousand words here. Did they break the clips that hold it in place?

yea a pic would help, but the plastic trim that the switch is mounted in should pop out of the door panel. Usually have to get a plastic clip tool but a flat head screwdriver should work fine just make sure to pry lightly so you don't mar up your door panel.

Uh sorry I'll try and get some pics. But yeah, it seems like they broke the clip that holds the window switch in place.

If they did that, I'd insist that they pay to replace it. Hopefully you paid by credit card so you have recourse if they refuse.

They definitely did, switch was fine before I brought it in. Brought it back once and they said that they don't remove that part to do the tint, only the top portion of the door panel.

It look like the switch is broken, not the clips. Looks like the part number for the switch is 84030-53040, and that the part goes for around $80-85 at the online sellers I checked. You can get it at your local dealer, or from one of the mail order parts places. You should also be able to find used replacements on eBay for a bit less.
