Replacing the dash...
Basically you need a Torx 25 (If I remember)
Disconnect Battery
Open both doors and remove both fuse covers on either side
Undo all Torx screws on the glovebox and disconnect cables. Remove.
Undo all Torx screws on the lower half of the dash under the driver and remove.
Undo the metal centre console surrounds and remove
Undo the Ashtray and remove
Remove radio and undo 2 x Torx screws
Undo plastic surround on the climate control and remove
4 x Torx Screws on the climate control and remove
4 x Torx Screws holding the TT centre console in. Remove
Drop the 4 screws from the Steering Column and rest on the seat
Disconnect passenger airbag connection and remove airbag complete in the carrier from the car
Undo all Torx screws on the left hand side of the fuse box cover (Passenger side)
Repeat for the fuse box on the driver side of the car
Remove A Pillar Surrounds. Just prise off gently as they are push clips
Disconnect heated seat switches etc.
Remove Dashboard Clocks
Slide dash towards you (3 clips at the back that hold it securely) and pull out.
Hope that helps.
