How to Replace the Centre Console Lid on a Volkswagen Golf?

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Center console tunnel

To replace the centre console lid on a Volkswagen Golf, you will need to completely disassemble the console: you can do this using a tool to pry off the trims around the armrest and the gear lever. Underneath, you will find the screws that secure the drawer where the lid is located: by detaching the drawer, you can then remove the old lid and fit the new one. Finally, reassemble everything, ensuring that the new lid moves smoothly.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
