Default How to remove kick panel below steering wheel?

I removed the four obvious screws, but the panel isn't even a little bit loose afterwards. Can't seem to find what's holding it, but something is. Any help? B8.5 S5.

This is the B9 and B9.5 forum. You want the B8 and B8.5 forum: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/aud...cabrio-b8-125/

Thanks John, I wasn't paying close enough attention.

Thanks for the diagram. The B8.5 looks quite different, but the instruction to "Unfasten dash panel cover from dash panel by hand" might be the clue that a big pull could be what's required. It might either come off or break.

That's not the right diagram for an 8.5. That's the diagram for a 9 and 9.5.
