Hi
Just bought a used Mk3 Berlingo. The previous owner installed a gizmo which I have indentified as a Parrot bluetooth device.
As you can see in the photo, a wire to the device emerges from below the panel above the radio.
I have no use for this thing and want to remove it. How do I open the panel above the radio to disconnect it ?
Thanks.

If you're removing the whole lot, is it for sale?
I would start by removing the radio; you can see the release tool holes on the right in your picture. That should help you see how to remove the upper cover.

Yes, they are the dedicated type I recommend for the novice. Nails, wire etc work OK if you already know what you're "feeling for" with the little spring catches.

I removed the radio and found that the wire from the Parrot bluetooth device leads somewhere round the back of the centre display (Time/Date etc)
Why does it connect there ?
Also - I would be happy to just cut the wire and chuck this thing away, rather than remove the display unit to unplug. Any risk of a problem from doing that ?
UPDATE : For the time being I have bundled the device and its wire with cable tie and shoved it all in behind the radio. So if I change my mind, I can always bring it out again.
