Hi all.

Finally got a real truck, nothing new there you ask but being in the UK it is something to celebrate. Only trouble is that the standard radio does not work with the majority of the stations in the UK and I would like to change it. I now have all the bits needed but looking at the surround cannot see how to get it off to get the radio out. I assume that like a Neon I had the radio is screwed in and the bezel unscrews and unclips somehow but how?. I do not want to damage it as will struggle to get a replacement. Please any help is a plus.

Cheers for now

 

I did my install, so here ya go. Theres a screw on the inside of the "hook" on the lower right of the dash. Take that out. Flip down the cupholder and ashtray. The whole bezel will pop off now, just a bit of force will pop it off. Then theres just a few bolts/screws that hold the unit in place, take those off and the stereo is ready to be taken out.

 

Excellent!, just hope it is as easy as it sounds. Thanks a bundle.

 

Ukhemi, you'll have to post some pics from around your area. I was watching an episode of fith gear (or maybe its top gear over there??) and they did a piece on UK drivers who love driving big american trucks around London.

 

Will have to sort out. I am in Cornwall in the South West and have to put up with all the surfers dreaming about it. Where I picked it up from there are a load of people driving around in them.

 

Many thanks for the details, could not believe how easy it was.
