| You will probably need the release pins.Halfords sell them.They slide in the slots on the edges of the unit.Sometimes you can use a coathanger or a small flat screwdriver. |

| somtimes you can take the glovebox out then you can see the back of the head unit so you can then just give it a huge push.

| Having had a citroen, it came pre-wired without a radio so i could install one of my choice ![]() The speaker wire was of very poor quality and the stock speakers are not much better. I found that decent speaker cable (about £2/m) and some £40-50 front door speakers made a huge difference. What head unit did you buy to replace the original?
