Default How to remove stock radio/navigation unit

Hi guys. I need to know how to remove the stock radio/navigation system. If you know how (which interior panels to remove/what order), can you please give me some hints on how to do so? Thank you!

I think I've found it. Do you think this will work for a car with navigation?

You need to remove the ash tray, and the upper a/c vents where the clock is located. Both parts just pop right out with gentle prying with a flat head screw driver. Once both of them are out, you will see the four 10 millimeter bolts which need to be removed. Hope this helps.

You forgot to mention that he should NOT, and I can't stress it enough, do NOT pull the wires when you take out the units. They can plop out if you pull it out with too much strength.
