To replace the radio of the Volkswagen Golf, you need to use an object to lever off the trim panel surrounding the device, in the central part of the dashboard: once the panel is removed, you will be able to locate the screws underneath that secure the radio to its housing.

Once all the screws are loosened, you can proceed by removing the device from its slot and then disconnecting the connectors at the back: you can then connect the new device to them, securing it and covering it properly with the panel.
