How to Dismantle the Heating Box in a Volkswagen Golf 4?

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, MK 4, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Air conditioner

Contrary to what one might think, dismantling the heating box (and consequently the heating radiator) is not a simple task. This is because accessing this part requires first removing the entire dashboard, including the inner frame. The car must be in the conditions shown in the video. The most difficult part is undoubtedly unscrewing the four screws indicated by the YouTuber towards the end of the video, which are located behind the silver protective panel, two at the outlet of the air conditioning radiator and two at the outlet of the coolant.
