How do you open the fuse box cover in the Volkswagen Golf 5?

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Fuse box

The openings of the fuse box covers are usually represented by metal interlocking hooks, placed along the entire perimeter of the boxes, easy to remove. The positions of these boxes depend on the type of vehicle and may vary, however in the case of the Volkswagen Golf 5, they are found in the engine compartment, near the 12-volt battery that powers the vehicle, and in the cabin, inside the left side of the dashboard. In addition to fuses, we may also find electrical relays in these boxes, remembering that all these components are depicted in the electrical layout.
