The answer is using an insane amount of force.
I am sure it is possible to make special tool that squeezes stuff in just the right spot, but realistically take pliers and pull on the brown part as hard as you can.

Perhaps Audi VDO cluster. And you dont need to remove that button for display swap.

No, you don't need to for display swap.
You need to do it if you want to swap PCB and your new PCB came from a car that does not have the rotary control.

All is well now

I managed to fry some RS4 clocks, and I fixed them using a PCB from an A6.
Curiously enough the A6 PCB was donated by ddillenger, and I received it after he had passed away. Oh well.
