The boot-opening switch on my 407 doesn't work. I can still open it with the remote but, presumably, the contacts on the press-switch on the boot are dirty - whatever.
Anyway, unless anyone has any ideas on that, my question is a very simple one. The inside of the boot lid has a stiff cover held in place by a dozen or so plastic pins which, presumably, click into holes in the metal boot lid. But I cannot work out how to remove these pins safely. Is it just a matter of levering with a screwdriver or getting long-nosed pliers around the shaft and pulling? I don't have a Haynes for the 407 - my next search will be to locate one.
I have always found this group a great source of help with successive peugeots (and, I believe, I have been able to help others occasionally). The fact that the group is so quiet reflects the fact that modern vehicles are, relatively, trouble-free and, when they do go wrong, with anything other than a flat tyre or an empty fuel tank, it is usually beyond the average driver to do other than call for help.
