To replace the fuel door of the Volkswagen Polo, you will first need to open it to access its internal part: here you will find the access cap to the tank that will need to be unscrewed and completely removed. After removing the cap, you can loosen the screws that secure the door from its internal part so that it can be completely detached.

Once the removal has taken place, you can position the new replacement piece: this can now be fixed with the screws to ensure that everything is functioning properly.
