punkassmofo Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 How do you take out the ash tray from the centre console (1998 2.8). No the actual ash tray itself but the plastic tray it sits in. My VagCom diagnostic port has been pushed through the hole, so I need to remove it to sort it out. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger.hooper7 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 hi, i had the same problem, its easier to get some long nose pliers and pull it out then re-sit it back in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SINGH Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Try the way Rodger says, if that doesn't work you will have to take the two carpeted pieces on the side of the dashboard off, you will need to remove the footrest on the drivers side and then you will see some torx bits for the Ashtray/Climate control which you will have to loosen on each end, sorry I'm crap at explaining it. Let me know if you want me to clarify something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
