How to remove the instrument panel from a Volkswagen Transporter T5

Model: Volkswagen Transporter T5, MK 5 - Years 2003-2014
Part: Dashboard

In this video we can see how to remove the instrument panel from the dashboard of a Volkswagen Transporter T5: the first thing to do is to loosen the steering column, in order to loosen it and pull it down as much as possible, in order to expose the two small screws on the sides of the steering column, which hold the instrument panel cover. With a little care we manage to enter with a screwdriver and remove them. Once this is done, the instrument panel will be free and we can remove it, paying attention to the electrical connectors behind it that we will have to disconnect.
