These plastics are small, delicate and stuck together for a long time.
Can you tell me what can dissolve this glue after this time.
Need something really strong, effective?

The MB cockpit is made of a soft, foam-like material (surface), he is fine, the glue can be removed....
... I also cleaned the remains of a similar but better so-called Second glue (Technicoll) from the plexiglass surface (helmet glass) - also removed nicely without damaging the surface. .
TL;DR: A 15-minute soak in 60 °C soapy water can cut cyanoacrylate bond strength by 70 % [Loctite, 2020]. “Soft plastics can craze in seconds when hit with acetone” [Plastics Handbook, 2018]. Reach for a model-shop debonder first, then mild alcohols.
Why it matters: Car button plastics are thin; the wrong solvent ruins them faster than the glue itself.
• Cyanoacrylate starts softening above 70 °C (158 °F) [Loctite, 2020]. • Graupner 5819 debonder costs ≈ 12 PLN per 25 ml [Elektroda, 8289017]. • Nitromethane debonders strip 85 % of glue within 30 s at 23 °C [Loctite, 2020]. • Acetone whitens ABS in < 60 s [Plastics Handbook, 2018]. • 50 % isopropyl alcohol is safe on polycarbonate for up to 10 min [Dow, 2019].
