With a flat screwdriver or a small plastic lever, detach the small plastic around the lock buttons. Unscrew the now uncovered screw with a t20 torx wrench. Then unscrew the screw under the handle again with torx t20. Now, again with a slotted tool (flat screwdriver, lever and whatever you prefer) remove the door panel. Disconnect the connector. Now unscrew the screws on the door that secure the lock, as shown in the video. Also unplug the cable connected to it and it will come out.

How to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo

Let's see in this short and simple guide the instructions that will allow us to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo. First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
