Default hazard switch removal

Daughter wrecked the 92 240 brick, bought a 2001 s40 for replacement.
turn signals are intermittent, will work if you barely touch the hazard switch.
How does one remove the wood grain plastic fairing to gain access to the switch assy? thanks,

I had a non-op hazard switch and decided it was reckless not to restore it. 2000 S-40....someone had actually posted a link to great instructions and the $50. switch (volvo dealership) was installed in @ 30 min. I forget most of the procedure (sorry), but I believe that I had to remove the radio. I know for a fact that I had to remove the two self-contained vents akimbo to the hazard switch using a small slot screwdriver as directed by the link. Once you find the instructions (persevere!)---take your time and do it in a well- lit area to avoid damage to other parts. Trust me...once you do get your problem fixed, you will be glad you did it yourself. Good luck, friend.
