Remove the plastic covering from the dashboard under the steering wheel and at the side of the centre console using appropriate plastic or metal levers. Unscrew the fastening screws with a screwdriver and remove the plastic cover of the glove compartment (right dashboard) that covers the heating radiator.

Once all the described operations are completed, pull the radiator out of its housing (use your hands). Finally, replace it with the new metal radiator.

Refit all previously removed parts, working backwards through the assembly steps.
