It doesnt hurt to have another one's perspective and explanation of the same procedure.

Plus, afyfe, your instructions are specific to a sportivo. His one is specific to non-sportivo models. For this reason, I dont think we are doubling up on posts on the same issue.

I have the non-sportivo corolla and personally find it helpful to follow instructions based on a model similar to mine.

I realise that you may feel that your work and efforts may be superseded by his post, but dont worry, I am sure sportivo owners would prefer to follow your instructions.

I am only saying this coz I appreciate what Northy has done. And yours too.

hey guys

im doing this now, but the centre climate dials seems like they are clipped into that panel

so when i try to pull its like something is holding it in, and i dont want to pull harder as it might snap

any tips?

Nice post, thanks for taking the time to take photos and to let us know how it's done! ;)

I've added what I learnt from doing a full install using this here.
