Default Under dash plastic cover removal, help required

My wife's clutch slipped the other day on a hard acceleration from 1st to 2nd(less than 30K and babied). I have been reading that this is fairly common and the best solution is to adjust the clutch pedal so that it takes more push to disengage the clutch and wait for the clutch to "de-glaze" itself.

I crawled under the dash last night and found a plastic guard. I tried pulling and prying gently, but no luck. Please help. TIA

Default Clutch pedal is not adjustable on a 1.8t.

But the only way to remover the plastic under there is to remove the whole lower dash.

Uh, yes you can adjust the "pickup" point with a 10mm wrench
