Dimmer Switch - Hidden Screws?

[cantbuildwontbuild]

Got a Dimmer Switch from B&Q only just noticed it is a hidden screws one for a better finish. How the hell do you get these things on? How can you screw something in without being able to access the screws?

There is going to some simple explanation for how to do it but I just cant figure it out just now.

the face plate likely pushes onto a frame that you screw onto the box..
a photo of the back of it would help..

Hopefully this image has worked.

looks like one where the front plate clips to the fixing plate. You should be able to seperate the two screw the fixing plate to your back box then clip the front onto that

Instructions that came with the switch?

You would think so but no instructions with regards to the plate, only wiring instructions.

After all that the socket didnt fit into the cage. The transformer is too bulky.

You lever the face plate off with a screwdriver.....the darker coloured lugs above the left screw and below the right screw (as you view your pic) should be the holding points...overly engineered but thats what you can get when you're paying far eastern wages...
