Help: Removing stain from a/c controls behind clear window - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Somehow a drop of thai tea from last night got into the a/c controls between the clear window and lined background. Is there a way to remove the front window from the background so I can clean it off before it permanently stains the display? At the moment I am removing the whole nav unit from the dash... any ideas on how to clean it out???

Update...

Having trouble removing the A/C vents. I'm pretty sure that all I have to do is pull on them like most other cars but my fingers can't get a good grip. Any tips on this?

Get a good grip, then a quick swift yank will do the trick

Since you had that apart, whats the blue background made of? Can it be removed?

I don't remember too well since I was concentrating on the tea drop and not scratching any of the interior parts. LOL. But I think it was some kind of painted plastic. The lines are there because the plastic is ribbed. I don't think it can be removed but not sure. Everything looks perfect now. Hope that answers your question.
