How do you remove the head unit from a Mk5?
« on: 09 December 2008, 20:09 »
I have just got me a VW ipod kit to hook upto my RCD500. But I need to know how to remove the head unit. Do I need some special removal pins?

Is there a step by step guide?

My car is a 2008 R32

thanks guys
2008 R32 DBP gone. 2008 GT TDI going 2009 GTI coming soon!

pop out the rain sensor on the top of the dash
underneath that will be a T20 torx screw remove it
carefully pull up and unclip the top dash trim
unclip the lower dash heater trim surround
there will be 4 T20 torx screws holding the h/u
refittiing is reversal of removal
