If you want to improve the performance of the audio and infotainment system in the Volkswagen Golf, you can replace the stock unit with a more powerful one. To remove the old radio, sit in the driver's seat and start by detaching the climate control panel frame, then detach the radio frame that also includes the air vents, disconnect the electrical connectors for the hazard switch and remove the frame.

Using a hook tool, unclip the four clips that secure the radio: this operation requires patience and skill, after which you can slide out the unit.

Disconnect the rear connections to remove it completely.
