Good morning, today’s objective is to dismantle the instrument cluster of our Volkswagen Tiguan. Start by sitting in the driver’s seat of the vehicle.

At this point, unscrew and remove the screws that secure the instrument cluster to the dashboard, then extract the instrument cluster from its housing.
