Logitech G X56 HOTAS Throttle Label Plate Replacement

To access and replace any of these switches, the label plate must first be removed. This guide will walk you through the process of safely detaching the label plate without damaging the surrounding housing or connectors. Take care during removal, as the plate may be secured with adhesive or alignment clips that require gentle prying.
