Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to remove the cluster from the instrument panel of a Volkswagen Passat B7. First, remove the upper steering cover using a plastic spatula to avoid damaging the dashboard. When the cover is free from its clips, pull it towards you and then upwards to detach it from its housing.

You will now have access to the two screws located beneath the cluster. Unscrew them to free the cluster.

Then, pull it towards you, being careful of the electrical connectors attached at the back. Take care not to pull them out.

How to Adjust the Rear Seats of the BMW X1

In this video, see how the BMW X1's cargo area can be used to transport large loads. To expand this area, the rear seat can be folded down with a 40/20/40 split, each section can be folded separately or all together. The seats can be adjusted independently to provide more space for passengers or cargo: to do this, pull the handle located at the bottom and push or pull as needed. To position the backrest in the desired position, there is a cordura handle on the left side. Inside the trunk, there are buttons that automatically fold the backrests of the rear seats forward, but only after ensuring they are clear. They can be returned to an upright position manually using the cordura handle.
