Front passenger air bag cover removal

[Scouser]

I seem to have developed an annoying squeak coming from my font passenger air bag cover on the dash. If I put hand pressure on it the squeak stops.

Before I attempt to remove it and refit, is there any special trick or things I need to know about or be aware of?

Get some felt tape and have a look at TSB 1/00 7018 Noises In The Dashboard Area (dated 6-30-00) -- page 5, Noise in area 5 – Creaking and/or rattling noises on the panel for passenger’s airbag.

Hi Scouser...

TSB 7018 is what I used to fix the same rattle, plus the side vent rattle and the defroster cover. The filt tape is readily available at any Porsche dealership and its super cheap and it has fixed every interior rattle and squeek my car has had.

Thanks guys. Woah, good job I asked. I was about to try to prise off the aibag cover thinking it just pulled off!

Maybe there is something behind the cover making noise.
