MtnBikerChk Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 HI! I'm pretty good with instructions - but I don't have any for the removal of the head unit on my husband's car (I've replaced the factory radio on my car with the Crutchfield step by step instructions - love those). ANYWAY, I need to install a wired FM adapter for his sirius radio http://www.tss-radio.com/direct-adapter-wired-relay-p-4082.html?osCsid=6cb11f2266cc6500f80d712b5b5743e2 Can I assume that it will be self evident once I remove the panels? Are there any tips/tricks to removal? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Well the antenna wire will look like no other wire plugged into the back of the radio. If its like my 97, they made the lead with no slack in it, so it may be a bit of a tight fit as far cable length. Other then that it will be obvious. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 There's probably a screw or two behind the cupholder and then clips holding the trim in place. Check above the ashtray as well and then carefully pry off the trim. Once that's off there are six screws that hold the din rails in so you just remove those, pull the whole thing out, and disconnect the plugs. Here is a headunit information thread on nasioc that might be of some help: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=749402 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinsUBARU Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I'm pretty sure the 2004 is the same as my 2001...Only one screw is hard to get to...you take the ashtray out, there is also a philips head screw on the "roof" of the compartment. It's hard to get to, but a short screwdriver helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANKS! ps - I ended up ordering the 4.99 master sheet from Crutchfield to make sure I'd get all the screws. Good thing I did - those buggers were hard to find! I had to get a mirror!
