How to remove the dashboard of the Volkswagen Golf 6?

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 6, Golf VI, Golf 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Dashboard

To remove the dashboard of the Volkswagen Golf 6, use a tool to lever up the various plastic covers that comprise it. Start by lifting the cover surrounding the instrument cluster, which will allow you to loosen its fixing screws and completely remove it by disconnecting the connector. Next, lift the cover surrounding the gear lever and then that of the radio, which, once removed, will allow you to unscrew its fixing bolts and take it out. At this point, you can remove the air vents, pillar covers, and all other dashboard covers.
