Polo beats centre console removal
Posted: Thu Jun 01, 2023 9:45 pm
We have a Beats Polo that has a problem with the USB’s ports in that when you are driving, they sometimes disconnect and seem a bit loose. So, want to replace them.
Option one was we asked the VW dealer if they could do it, the seemed a bit non comital about it and tried to sell me a warranty package instead. Or they reckoned it was £600 plus to do it. Which I think seems a bit excessive, so assume they didn’t want the work.
Second option is getting a used part of a more recent Polo and fit ourselves. The problem is for the life of me I cannot find any YouTube videos, guides, manuals, step by step instructions etc as to how to remove it and which parts to do first. Seem to be plenty for older Polos, etc but non for this model. Having gone through the post’s on here I don’t think it’s been asked before either.
So, has anyone done it before if so, how? I think it cannot be that hard but I really don’t want to force bits in the wrong order and end up breaking all the clips and then have to try and source further replacements.
Any advice welcome.
