    It couldnt be any easier than this....

    Goto your dealers parts counter. Ask for the radio removal tool, if he has them cool, if not it will take about a day for him to get. He will then ask for about 5 bucks or there abouts. You hand him the money, he gives you the tools. You pull them out of the dime bag it came with.

    Read the ingraving on the tool one is marked L the other R. Put them in the horizontal slots at the bottom corners of your radio, push in till it clicks, then pull out :bandit:

    Easy peasy :bunny:

    sorry for the story, just felt like typing for some funky reason today
