Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you will learn how to remove the internal heating controls from an Opel Astra. First, get inside the car and obtain a very thin plastic lever.

Then, remove the two square pieces located near the controls, so you can then lever out the climate control knobs and remove them. Finally, disconnect the two electrical connectors at the back, taking care to correctly release the tabs.

If you want to access the internal heating unit, you will need to remove the glove compartment, as shown in the video!
