Nice! Tin of brake clean and an old toothbrush next time, strip, clean and reassemble and hopefully have no issues again 🤞 

That won't help unfortunately as the issue is a little plastic rod inside the shaft under the controller knob. They just snap in half, taking away scroll access :(

New part work is in and works well, slid into the centre console easily enough. Didn't have the heart/wasn't bothered to tuck the cable from the controller back into their depths of hell mounting points, they sit quite happy and snug anyways running straight to the connector past the gear selector. Nothing to get caught on there anyways.

Definitely improves the usability of it all! Was a pain getting the headunit back in as the connector blocks put up a good old fight, but we got there in the end!

The box is tucked in the side of the carpet, does stick out a tad bit but I can live with it, you can't really tell unless you move your head to look right over it
