Interior piece around radio

[99bugfan]

Hi Everyone,
I have to replace the interior piece around the radio (broken vent control). I was just wondering how to get it off in one piece?

Wear some rubber gloves (Aids contact to the plastic middle dash) and push that plastic middle dash towards the windscreen. Should just come off. Then under is some torx screws.

Remove grab handle, by using a flat head screwdriver and plying off the 2 side covers. Under them are more torx or hex screws.

Remove vase holder tab.

Under center console is your hazard switch, heated seats console. Under that are more screws. Remove them and then let that hang down.

Behind radio are 2 more torx screws. Then pull off and.............



The heater vents are non removeable. They are heat sinked into place. So you will either have to buy a new console (Good chance to paint it ) or Heat the vent out and source another to glue back in

Thanks. Very detailed info. I already picked up a used piece at the scrap yard. Maybe it is time to paint it
