Hi all,
I am trying to remove the dash in a 99 passat to change the stereo.
Two skrews in the cavity are easy to find but there must be one or two more somewhere.
It aint budgin' near the air controls.
Any clues / inside info.
thanx.

99 passats use keys to remove the radio, no disassembly necessary. go by a local car audio place and they might pop it out for you. i used pioneer keys once to remove a jetta radio, which is practically the same thing.

OK - But the dash plate has 2 screws in the cavity area - with them undone, shouldnt the plate slip off. It seems to be secured somewhere else.
I'll get a pro to look at it as advised.
Thanks for your time.

Sometimes they like to hide 2 small torx screws under some small square plates on the end of the radio. Loosen them and the radio will slide out. You should not have to remove any part of the dash.
