Remove Blower Motor Control

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Toyota Prius. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Using a drill, drill out the 2 rivet heads and remove the blower motor control.
Gently and vertically put the drill to the rivet, and cut the rivet flanges.
NOTE:
- Prizing the hole with a drill can lead to damage to the rivet hole or breaking the drill.
- Take care as the cut rivet is hot.
Using a vacuum cleaner, remove the drilled rivet and their dust.
