I have a faulty socket in my Fiat Ducato and need to replace it. Can anyone suggest how I can remove the faulty socket please? Does anyone know of any tips or pitfalls along the way?

Where is it? On the dash or in the habitation area?

I should have said that it is a 2010 Ducato. There is a pair of sockets on the dash and I would like to replace both of them as both are broken. Both sockets are loose and one can be lifted about 5-8mm but I cannot see how they are held in.

Remove the rubber bit in the cup holder. There is a screw. Remove this and they carefully lever out the trim housing the sockets.

The actual sockets are a fiddle to remove. Replace with twin USB's from amazon

It's easy, there is no access from the glove box like someone said on here, the little panel that they are in comes out 🤔 can't remember how, hidden screws I think. If nobody else knows I'll go out and have a look 👍2014 van
