I decribed the part to my dealer via e-mail, and he says its $150. That is way too much.

So I sent a second e-mail with a picture and a reference to the part number that was given earlier (55670-52010-C0). I am not sure if this is the right part number. Hopefully it is cheaper than $150.

I don't want the whole housing, just the slats and turn dial.

Here is some instructions on how to remove the dash panels. Its really simple, almost like LEGO. Every part of the dash has pop pins, which are really rugged. Don't pull too hard on anything, or you might risk scratches.

The trick is to know where to start, and follow the correct order. Imagine, peeling an onion and getting to the middle.
Hope this helps.
