How do I remove it on my mk3 face-lift? This silver surround piece is easy enough to clip off from the front, but the whole surround inc the buttons seem tight. 

I want to remove it to see if I can access my 12v power socket from there, as that's loose. Looks like the 12v power socket retaining clip has come loose. 

Thanks.

Got it off, but still doesn't leave much access to the power socket though. 

The socket housing plastic was broken, managed to get it out, does anyone know if this is replacable or not? 

I've repaired the power socket on a semi permanent basis. Bound the top part with electricians tape, pushed it back in, now a very tight fit.

Just fir info, found the parts I'd need or anyone else if they were wanting to buy the lighter supporting bracket, it's 11 and 10 on this picture.
