    How can I remove panel under dash on a 2010 Prius III? I need to adjust the brake light switch. Thanks Tom Kennedy

    Hello Tom,
    You don't need to remove the trim (black) piece to adjust. It makes things easier but not necessary.

    Due to age and physical limitations, I cant reach the switch from the side, but I believe I can from the front. How does this panel come off please. Thanks, Tom Kennedy

    Here are two documents that may be of help. Note use of plastic panel removal tools.
