How to Remove the Dashboard on a Volkswagen New Beetle?

Model: Volkswagen New Beetle MK 2, 9C - Years 1999-2012
Part: Dashboard

To remove the dashboard on a Volkswagen New Beetle, use a tool like a screwdriver to pry off the trim panel located at the top centre of the dashboard. Once this panel is removed, loosen the screws underneath that secure the other two side panels. These can now also be detached, allowing the entire dashboard trim to be removed. New replacement parts can then be inserted and secured in place.
