After 30 years of lusting and owning three previous TVRs (vixen, 390se and cerbera) I finally acquired a 1994 Griff 499.7 😂
One press of the boot release button and the pair of buttons disappeared behind the dash! The dash, I’m guessing, has been swapped to the current carbon-fibre one, so imagine the glue used has failed.
Questions are 1. Best way to re-affix without removing dash?, and
2. Has anyone re-routed/or repositioned the button to an “easier” position?
Thanks guys.

Hi nick, if you can remove the cars radio/stereo, as you look at said hole, upper left region there should be a wing nut you can undo. Just under the steering wheel there's 2 Phillips screws. Remove said wing nut and the screws and you can tilt the dash forward enough to reattach the buttons board. Best done with a hot glue gun.
