how to remove climate control unit?

Apparently it just pulls out from the top but I have yet to confirm this
 
The surround of your hazards buttons ect if you have double din just unclips off and then pull the climate unit down and forward at same time with a little force and will just come out easy as that.
 
You need to remove the radio (if single din ) or radio and switch button panel if two din and then just pull the top towards you. It will hinge out.
 
any specific locations to pry... dont want to use brute force on the wrong corner and snap a clip. cheers
 
Which a3 have you got? I have a climate from an 09 unit but still the old stule like this with heated seats options i might be able to sell you depending onthe age of your car
