In this video we will see how to remove the front grille with the emblem of the Volkswagen Golf VIII: we will need a 25mm torx key, with which we will remove the two screws located at the top of the grille. Gently press both from the top and from the bottom of the grille, which has electrical connections on the back that we will then remove by disconnecting them.

However, do not disconnect the connectors inserted on the back of the emblem, which has four locking extensions. Instead, we will need to remove the entire emblem using a screwdriver, being careful not to damage the connections.
