Bro, you saved my ass! I just didn't know how to change my middle console because of broken plastic clips and I wasn't able to release the two Torx screws underneath the cup holder without getting it out of there but I had no clue how to do this... Now I know! Thanks!
Hi, I've actually spotted somethig you've missed - which I didn't expect to - perhaps it's something you could add if you get any time to edit. I'm doing this job today and have found that the pair of screws to (UK) driver's side are a bit unusual and awkward to remove. They slide on sideways and clip into place, which is great for factory assembly but pretty fiddly for us DIYers. I don't yet have to solution but I suspect it's a push down and unclip some metal tails affair. Thanks again for your videos, very helpful and always enjoy your videos; really helped me this last couple of years.
Heck yes man. I come from the mk1/2 crowd , so these newfangled mk4s are a mystery to me. Im learning on one by stripping it for a donor, and I'll keep in mind all my oops I did the first time. As I was taking out the interior, I was on here like every 5 minutes🤣 Its way better than a manual!
Just curious if you had any footage of removing the column piece surrounding the shifter.. I want to clean mine up like you did to the door control area to get that black rubbery substance off.
Thanks very much for this video can you help me with my golf tdi mk4 2001 whenever it rains underneath the driver side carpet gets drenched and I can’t find the source I looked everywhere
Hey, my center console looks a little bit different. It has a cupholder that is mounted on gears and does not recess. How do i get the center console off? I took the cupholder off, but theres no or t20 screws visible underneath.
the little track its on is its own piece. its a square and you just have to pop it up on all 4 corners and pull it out. i only know this because my cup holder wouldnt fit right and its because one of those corners were popped up.
That side bracket is no where near that easy to take off either being a brand new one or the original off my 2001. I've seen other reviews that show it. Sing that easy. I actually went out and bought the trim removal tools for this job specially. After 2 hours I completely broke everything on the inside that held this thing together and yet it still didn't move.

My TDI that I just got didn't come with an arm rest so I'm glad its an easy install.
You're awesome man. Just bought an mk4 golf and your videos are helping a ton! Thanks a ton for the videos! They're definitely appreciated!

Good stuff man, love your videos. I always go to you for all my vw stuff.
Is it normal for the armrest to be able to tilt lower than a right angle? Like, tilted towards the handbrake?
Just curious if you had any footage of removing the column piece surrounding the shifter.. I want to clean mine up like you did to the door control area to get that black rubbery substance off.
Great video. Helped a lot in replacing the armrest.
Thanks for your video. Helped me out. All your videos are really helpful.
Hello, could u maybe upload, how to install a armrest on Golf 4?
As always the best videos of how to for vw thanks mate
No bs straight to the subject

Excelente.. sabes como cambiar la tapa del apoyabrazos? abrazo!
Thanks very much for this video can you help me with my golf tdi mk4 2001 whenever it rains underneath the driver side carpet gets drenched and I can’t find the source I looked everywhere
The sunroof drain is blocked or the pipe has separated from the grommet on the front door pillar.
Thanks for sharing this video. Great explanation on how to remove console. Keep up the good work.
Can I remove the whole console without separation of the armrest and console?
What is the size of the two plastic screws under the ash tray? Thank you!
I have done this to mine and replaced it with a OEM compartment box. The r32's doesnt come with an armrest they have an compartment instead
so does my SDI XD
Thank u very much from Chile.
Thanks for showing how to remove the armrest.....I can finally fix it myself.
charming guy. great video
saved me 14 min. what i watched before..
Thanks a lot. I hate that thing. Always in the way of the brake. And I’m not leaving it up, looks ugly!
is that on a gti 1.8t (base model i mean)?
yes
Are you Car mechanic BMACVAGS

The cupholder part is 1j0861989. I can't upload a photo to show you guys what exactly I'm talking about.
the little track its on is its own piece. its a square and you just have to pop it up on all 4 corners and pull it out. i only know this because my cup holder wouldnt fit right and its because one of those corners were popped up.
Im sory no dou you speak germany. CIRCIR 3/8? 1/2?
Very good Brother
Hi BMAC, I would like that armrest. I have the exact MK4. Can you sell it to me?
Thanks for the videos.
Didn't have to remove the ashtray, could have just taken out the little cup to get to the screws
Yeah, but its easier if the ashtray is completely removed when you put the screws back in.
thanks for video I used the info and so I replaced mine.
Good vid boss!! Thanks a ton.
Thank you. great help
The best ! Love your vids !
Really helpfull,thanks 😊
