Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • T4 transporter centre console removal

    Hey peoples...
    I've just brought a 94 T4 2.5 Petrol to do up as my Mx Transporter (hence the name..lol)
    I've been tinkering with it already.. and been scrolling through the forums as well as other sites..to find it but without much luck.

    Here is the question.... how do I remove the centre console trim without having to take the whole dash out...?

    I've removed all the controls and air vents as well as the screws etc...
    I know the support beam is in the way but what has me stumped is it feels like the lower section also clipped on...

    I would post a picture but dont know how to do it...working off my phone anyways...

    Help on this would be great on both fronts... removing the console and uploading pictures...lol

    Thanks in advance.

    The lower section is indeed clipped on. If I recall correctly...the trim clips into a receiver on the frame underneath it. If you use the Tapatalk app on the phone it will host photos for you...

        If its the grey part then yes the whole dash has to be removed , or is it the black part ? Link here shows the dash eviscerated like a gutted animal .photos of VW Transporter T4 dash board - Google Search

          Yeah its the black part im trying to remove..
          But it seems like it catches under the grey part...
          Photo online i found with it removed... but was broken when they did it...

          My t4 is an early model with the heater switch the move left to right... so i can't relocate it

                Okay I get it now , good luck sounds like a good idea for something different . Did you see my sons T4 on the forum he is another MX fan . I did the full sound proof and fit out for his 16th Birthday .http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...hlight=Sons+T4

                    We rarely used his until after he got his license so we used our Family T5 to go to races etc , I fitted some tie downs at a later date .
                    On the way home from Kilcoy Races he was only just 16 no learners at this time , scared dad in passengers seat .
