Thank you for your responses. I have communicated with the KIA supplying dealer, who is uninformed, and I have emailed KIA customer service, who also lacks information and recommended that I reach out to the dealer.

I consistently hold my breath when fitting it. However, i...

I encountered a comparable problem 18 months prior with our 2005 W203 C200 Sports Coupe. My spouse damaged the N/S repeater indicator light. MB stated they were unable to provide the new component...

I am relieved to confirm my sanity, although it seems there are two discussions on the same topic.
