Heater control bulb
I would like to know how to get to replace the bulb - I have tried prising the back off the heater control panel but feel there could be an easier method.
Thanks.

What you need to do is go to vw dealer and get the modified bulb holders. vw converted heater control illumination bulb holder to a capless 1.2w type. The ashtray has a different bulb holder but uses the same capless bulb. Note the bulb holders do not come with the bulbs. Hope this helps

The panel just pulls off the dash surround after you've done that. The bulb holder fits (loosely) into a socket on the back of this panel you have removed. As Ianaa says, it's a 1.2w capless bulb that slots in to the bulb holder. You can get the bulbs from Halfords etc.
