Today, and unfortunately did not get to install it as the "qualified" people at the stereo place sold me the wrong harness =D>.
I figures I would post up pictures for anyone who was curious about updateding/removing their system but was undure of what is involved. I am not going to do a full writeup on it until later, but I can always edit this post. I am sure this is old school to a lot of you, but someone may be able to gain something from it. I am not an expert, so ymmv. First bolt I removed. This is a 7mm head, and easily accessible. ![]() ![]() ![]() Bolt head slightly hidden by carpet ![]() Removal of the "wedge" in the shift knob. This wedges did not require "stradling" the seats, or super human effort to remove. I simply sat in the passenger seat, clamped the vice grips on and pulled up while gently rocking it left to right. Came out easily. ![]() ![]() |

After unscrewing the shift knob, you have to loosen the 1.5mm allen head to remove the reverse lockout.
![]() ![]() Now you can gently lift up the shifter plate. Be careful as your lighter is still plugged in. ![]() ![]() ![]() Now this is where we are at; ![]() Last edited by todesengel; 04-19-2010 at 12:00 AM. |

To remove the faceplate there are several more 7mm bolts (shown in pics below) and you also must remove the upper vent (two phillip head screws shown in pics below)
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Once the vent is removed it exposes a "hidden" bolt. ![]() ![]() Last edited by todesengel; 04-19-2010 at 12:03 AM. |

Now you can gently remove the faceplate, starting at the bottom. Be careful as you still have to unplug the engine power switch.
![]() ![]() Now we have this; ![]() The radio is attached to the supports by 4 phillip head screws ![]() ![]() In lieu of taking the whole center console out I opted for just removing the upper support screw, and pushing it to the side when I removed the radio. This screw is shown here; ![]() Last edited by todesengel; 04-19-2010 at 12:07 AM. |

Now you simply unscrew the 4 phillips head screws, and remove the unit. Be careful to push the console upper "ears" to the side gently to avoid damaging it.
![]() ![]() Head unit removed; ![]() |

I am going to add the speaker removal and install, along with the amp, new headunit, etc when I get time. Should be by the end of this week as I have to run to Dallas Tuesday.
I am going to reserve a few more posting spots so I can continue without breaks in the pictures. If you have anything to add, or find somewhere that I am correct, please feel free to join in and correct me. |
