Replacing radio on a 97 Legacy with no ashtray

Featured Replies

How do you get the radio panel off a Legacy that doesn't have an ashtray? On my 95, when I removed the ashtray, there were screws that needed to be removed. On my 97, which has a plastic holder in place of the ashtray, how do I get it out? I assume that the screws that need to be removed are still there, but I can't seem to remove this plastic piece without breaking it.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanx,

Pete

I replaced my stock radio with a JVC AVX33 yesterday. If you have a cup holder, slide it completely out and there should be screws behind it. I'm not sure if this is the case with the '97, but give it a shot.

gently pop outt the plate. I have a multiple outlet there that just snaps in, that should be the same. Then there are two screws under that plate pointing up that have to come out.

The holder does come out with just a tug (albeit a hard one). Thanx again Nipper. The new radio is in a blasting!!!
