75 tourer boot cover
 

Hi All,

I wanted to remove the boot cover today but the right hand button release was stuck in and no amount of pulling and waggling would allow it to move. Has anyone any idea how to get the button to release without damaging the surrounding trim.

Thanks,
Martin

Tourer boot cover problems
 

Hi Martin,
I’m sorry I am a week behind your entry, and thought you may have had some other responses before now.
My near side catch on the wheel arch top has lost the leading edge which caused me problems. In order to release it, I have to free the offside catch first, and with the cartridge still resting on the catch base plate, I push the whole cartridge over to the near side, and this slight sideways movement is enough to free the near side catch.
Have you tried spraying the release button’s surround with WD 40 preferably though the tube supplied to get the spray directly in the gap between the release button edge and it’s surround?
If you are still with it not released I hope the above may be of help.
