Ford Focus - Ford Focus Radio Button replacement - jeffpick

My son bought 2008 Ford Focus. AM/FM button on radio (siver 6000 CD) was sticking causing radio to malfunction. Garage who sold car replaced button with a temporary one while new one was ordered. This took several weeks. Car is now in London and garage is in Newcastle. I have posted button to my son to change button. Garage advised levering button off with small screwdriver. My son has had a quick go but button is still fixed. He doesn't want to damage the radio facia. Any advice on how to pop button out so it can be replaced.

Thanks in advance. Jeff

Okay for those interested here is the answer basically those silver bars above and below the button have little clips. Shoved a metal ruler in the top and bottom then leaver it out.

Hi Jeff,

could you advise where the button was ordered from, please? I have the simillar issue (AM/FM button worn) but I haven't found any spare pushbuttons on the internet.

Thank you.
