Hi I am new here. I bought my B-Max last December (2nd hand).So far I am very satisfied with the performance of the car and all the goodies it has installed.
Unfortunately the previous owner has demolished the USB connector next to the gear shift.
Does anyone have any experience in replacing this USB socket.
Is it easy to remove the cover and access the socket for replacement?
Thanks for any advice.

as far as I can tell the lower dash insert is held in with clips around the air con settings, and pegs in near the handbrake

there is currently an item on ebay

which shows the whole plastic piece after its been removed.

Thanks Gremlin, this gives me an idea which part will come off. I am picking up the replacement usb socket at the local dealer this afternoon. In the weekend I will have time to fit it in. A report will follow.
