Fuse boxes/auxiliary relays - a little O/T, but still VAG

[Robert Rossato]

There is a small tab at the bottom on both sides of the relay holder.
Using a small jewelers screwdriver and going back and forth on either
side you can get them off relatively easy.  When you get one side
released keep a load on it so that it doesn't snap back in when you go
to do the other side.
