Step 1:
Locate the radio cassette player and pocket in the center of the dash. The cassette player and pocket must be removed. Unsnap the rectangular plastic dash panel surrounding the cassette player and pocket area. The plastic should unsnap by pulling gently. You may need a small flat head screwdriver to start an edge.

Step 2:
Once the rectangular plastic dash panel has been unsnapped, the mounting screw which secure the cassette player and pocket should be visible. Locate and remove four 7mm bolts that secure the cassette player and pocket. Two bolts will be located to the left of the cassette player, two bolts will be located to the right of the pocket.

Step 3:
Once the bolts are removed, the cassette player and pocket should now be free to be removed. The cassette player and pocket are joined together and will remove as one unit. Pull firmly to remove the cassette player/pocket unit from the dash.
Once it has been pulled out of the dash, you will notice two plastic connectors containing wires plugged into the rear of the back of the cassette player. Unplug both connectors. You should now be able to completely remove the cassette player/pocket unit from the dash. Set aside, you will no longer need this unit.

Step 4:
The ACTUAL radio is a small metal box hidden underneath the dash below the glove box. You must remove a plastic panel below the glove box to gain access to this hidden “brain” unit. Look up at the bottom of the dash on the passengers side of the car. A black plastic dash panel faces down to the carpet and covers the very bottom of the dash panel. This panel is secured to the dash with (3) or (4) 7mm bolt screws at the front of the panel. Locate and remove these screws and the black plastic panel should drop down as shown in the photo above.

Step 5:
Once the black plastic panel has been removed, you can look up into the dash where you will see a bunch of electronics and wires as shown in the photo above. You should see a silver box with 2 inch long fins on the left side (the box is outlined in the photo above).
This box is the main radio or “brain” and all the wires needed to install your new radio are plugged into the box. These wires need to be unplugged.

Step 6:
Take your hand and place it on the rear of the metal box. Move your hand around until you feel 1 connector and 1 cable plugged into the box. Unplug both the plastic connector and the cable plugged into the back of the box.(as seen in the photo abobe)
To confirm you unplugged the correct connector and cable, the install doctor provides below a pictorial of each so you can verify that you have the correct connector and cable.
