Re: IML: popping push buttons cured

Glad that worked. I've had 60-63 Imperials for the past 37 years & have had 
this problem a number of times. Squeezing the tines always solved the 
problem, since there is no movement in the plastic part once the 2 parts are 
assembled, they move as one. The forks usually spread from taking the bezel 
off & allowing the buttons to hang or by moving them around when removing 
for cleaning etc.  If you don't have the felt strip in there, you should get 
one of those as well.
