heated seats switch -- bulbs
How do I change the bulbs in the pass side switch? It's illuminated when off, but the light goes out in position it's turned on in, and doesn't get twice as bright as it should.

Very helpful as always, but my question was more along the lines of: how do I get the switch out? I guess I worded my post wrong.Originally Posted by shogun

Use a small jewelier screwdriver to pull it out. Actually on my E32 I managed to get in between the plastic cover which holds the switch and the seat with my fingers and pushed it out from the bottom, another time I used a piece of a chopstick, that was easier to push
Did not want to use a screwdriver to push because of the electric contacts there.
