Follow Stans insturctions regarding keeping the AC. As for the Plastics,
if the tunnel is a problem, it is a DOT mandated safety recall for  a
permanent fix. Check with your dealership to see if your vehicle is
eligible. If it has not been fixed before, then you definitely can
expect VW  make good at no cost to you. BTDT.
