To replace the dashboard of the Volkswagen Transporter, loosen all the screws securing the trims: start by freeing the air vents located at the sides of the radio. Once these are removed, proceed to loosen the screws of the radio itself and disconnect its connectors at the back; at this point, open the glove compartment and loosen the screws that secure it from the inside, removing it completely.

You can then detach the trims around the instrument cluster by loosening the screws that secure them and disconnecting the rear connectors.
