This is simply a great video. Thank you. Concise, clear, and no BS. And you offer an option if you don't have those tools. I've gone two summers with a crap stereo hardly working. Now it looks like it can be fixed without costing me a fortune. Thank you very much for posting the video.

Brilliant video. I was too excited to get my stereo installed that I didn't bother to check how it would be removed. Once I heard the click after pushing the head unit in I went uh-oh. You've made a very clear and concise tutorial and I feel confident I can get my head unit out without breaking anything. Super helpful. Thanks!

I'm removing my stereo from my old car to put in a new one. I've gotten the stereo itself out no problem but how do I remove the mounting cradle/mounting sleeve that's still inside the hole where the stereo was? Looks like 4 tabs are pushed down and I can't see how to get in there to push them back up again to remove the cradle. Thanks very much!

Or you can just use some thin butter knives . Had to do that before on a car I bought that had no face plate for the stereo because the owner misplaced it and I didn't want to keep the stereo since I had something better . Worked like a charm .

Hello. Great tutorial. I have a Sony CDX-S2000 Car Stereo, but unfortunately i think my remove button got broken (it's just a small thin piece of plastic in the back of the front panel) so now i can't remove the front panel of it. Is there a way to access a supposably "hook" inside the Car Stereo body that could permit me to take the front panel again? Many thanks in advanced.
