How to replace the radio of the 2012 VW Tiguan

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan 5N, MK 1 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Car stereo

Replacing the radio of the 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan is a very simple operation to perform independently, as it does not require the use of special tools. We insert a plastic lever inside the upper vent in order to remove it and proceed in the same way with the vent next to it. We unscrew the screws inside and remove the radio cover. We loosen the clamp and remove the radio. On the back of the radio we find the fuse that could be the cause of the radio not working. We disconnect the radio connector and proceed with the installation of the new radio by following the reverse procedure.
