Do you want to remove the radio from your Volkswagen Golf and don't know how? Follow this guide to remove the original stereo. Remove the trim around the stereo using a plastic lever (where the control buttons are located), and detach it from the centre console.

Once the stereo is free, use a screwdriver to unscrew the securing screws located on either side. Pull the stereo out with your hands and disconnect the cables (power and antenna).

To reassemble, reverse the disassembly steps.
