I know this is a long shot. But has anyone disassembled a hero switch module?? I've tinkered with it but didn't want to break anything. The reason I'm asking is the area shown in the circle would be perfect for routing charging and power wires for my phone and any other accessories I decide to dash mount. Better than drilling into the dash. I'm just not sure if there are any wires in that area even though the switches are at the other end.

That'd be interesting.

There’s probably a circuit board in there. I wouldn’t risk drilling into it unless you completely take it apart to verify.

The pcb ends at the last button. You can drill through the blank spot. However, there is not much clearance within the dash below the hero switch assembly. So I had to make a plastic peice to raise the switch I installed and have room for the wiring to it.

And how’d you separate the two pieces?
