405 Hunter Stereo Removal

Hi,

I'm stuck away from my Haynes manuals and attempting to replace the
factory fitted stereo in my 405 Hunter estate - L reg. The stumbling
block is getting the old stereo out. By prising off the buttons at
either end (obvious prising holes) of the stereo fashia I reveal two
vertical slots, and I've tried making extraction tools out of bent wire
but to no avail. Anybody here managed to remove such a stereo? I have a
suspicion from google searches that there may be a bolt at the back -
could that be my problem?

Thanks in anticipation!

Ben

 

There is a plastic panel running across the top of the stereo. Prise
this off and you will see 2 holes. Snap a normal U shaped removal tool
in 2 and stick them in until it clicks. I stick my fingers in the
cassette hole and pull, or you can remove the tunnel trim and push.

 

My newserver seems to have lost the reply to this post - but thank you
to yeha - Installed the new cdplayer at the weekend and it is great!

Cheers,

Ben
