How do I replace these metal pieces from my instrument panel?
There used to be an excellent old thread on this board "how' to do this, but photophpukpukpukpilbucket puked up the internet. I "fixed" mine by eliminating the factory connector, cut it off and used a pair of Molex style connectors, and soldered wire pigtails to the circuit board.
