iirc, and I have never had those bits fitted, I think they just attach to the actual dash itself, and as such are even easier to remove, or was that on a mk5.....

On the mk5 its;

Dash clocks surround off
screw now visible either side holds part of the trims you want to remove.
Pull off 3 center switches, 2 outer ones cover srews you need to remove, that panel will now lift off.

The other side I think you have to remove the lower cover to expose another screw. But its been so long since those bits have been on my track mk5 I may be wrong!
