In this video, see how to remove and replace the climate control bulbs on a first-generation Skoda Octavia, as well as on the Volkswagen Bora and Golf MK4. First, get inside the vehicle and grab a pair of pliers; then pull the knobs towards you to remove them along with the bulbs located at the back, as shown in the video.
