Hey fellow w202 dudes!!

I have the standard tape-deck (wtf) in my cabbie which i wish to remove/replace.

I do not have the thin metal inserts to remove the original. Any other way of removing it???

Thanks in advance!!

In a pinch, two metal nail files will do the trick.

You can see what the shape the tools needs to be (in case you want to rig something up yourself) at this link:

Make sure to note the orientation in the second picture when the guy is actually inserting the tools.

Hehee.... Tomorrow I am going to buy 2 nail files... Anybody want to take any bets on what this will do to my reputation (at least whatever there is of it) ???? :D

All else fails, going to build me those ninja star type thinga ma bobs...

Third try after fcuking up the deck I take it to a professional - :cool:
