Before starting, sit in the seat of your Opel Astra. The window switch is secured to its housing by two internal clips.

To release it, simply unclip these two clips. Then, gently pull the switch upwards.

This will free the switch itself. At this point, extract and remove the switch from its housing.

Once you have completed this last step, you will have successfully dismantled the window switch from your Opel Astra.
