How do I remove the head unit in my Octavia?

C_h_a_z · 24-10-2005, 15:37

I need to find a 12V ign feed and earthing point. I'm guessing that the easiest place will be behind the head unit. Any advice on how to remove it?

You can poke the plastic bits from cotton buds down the side to release it.

Think that a kenwood stereo key will work too.
