Do you have to strip out the trim each side from under the dash?

No, you shouldn't need to, unless you're stripping the entire dashboard console, in which case you'll have to. Nevertheless, there is a guide over on VW Vortex that provides a step-by-step guide with photos for disassembly of the centre console and dashboard/glove box.
