Before you can start, sit in the driver's seat of your Volkswagen Jetta. Begin by pressing and holding the light switch.

While doing this, rotate it clockwise. This will free the light switch itself.

Proceed to extract the switch from its housing. At this point, disconnect the corresponding electrical connector by simply releasing the securing clip and pulling.

Once you complete this last step, you can finally remove the switch, and you will have finished the disassembly.
