I HATE removing stock radios from these cars. They are such a pain in the ass.

When I do it...

Remove the centre console. Remove all of the vents & screws to take the dash trim bezel off.

Then, the radio is held in with 2 I think 8 or 10mm bolts underneath at the back of it. Once you undo those, the radio & pocket will come loose and you can slide them forward, unplug the harness and begin installing your new one.

To get at those 2 bolts under the radio, you need to unscrew the metal plate where the ash tray would go, as this plate covers the bolts.

5 minutes, if there's no screws in anything!
