Yeah, you have to take the whole top part that surrounds the gauges off in order to properly take the lower section off. There are a few bolts on the bottom one, if I remember correctly. Seems like there were 2 obvious ones and then another one kind of hidden that I didn't notice at first. Either way, it's not hard to do. The whole install only took me about 10 minutes, give or take.

Nice write up, with pics even. That'll make it easier for others down the road.

Anyone else have issues with seat heaters after installing this? I don't know if it's just coincidental timing or not, but my seat heaters won't stay on, and I hear a click that sounds like it's coming from that module or very close to it when they shut themselves off.

no issues here, but that makes me wonder. my seats, in the past, would random scroll thru the heat settings on their own. it happens randomly, but has not happened since i swapped this unit in

That's interesting, I wonder if indeed that module is somehow involved with the seat heaters in some way!! Wonder if OmarR will see this and possibly chime in, if so I'd be tempted to buy one to see if that revives my drivers side seat heater!!

not yet, ive been slacking. i did take a look at the dash today tho. does the unpper piece have to come off to get the bottom piece off? i see the bottom piece has 2 bolts at very bottom

no. the bottom piece has two inserts to the frame, gently push out one side underneath if you can, then the second one. don't twist or turn or the insert will crack or break.

did the part number work or was it a different one- like: 157XXXXX?
