Stereo removal tool is good enough for most of us Thumbs Up!

Should do, depends whether the requirement for the code is turned on or not and also what flavour of radio fitted. Thumbs Up!

Sep 2011 at 00:27 I have used four thin allen keys (also long galve nails) in each hole and pulled out no problem. Just push in gently until you feel the 'click' of the clip releasing Dont bother with a tool
