How to remove the car radio from the Alfa 159

Model: Alfa Romeo 159 MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Car stereo

If you intend to replace the car radio in your vehicle, refer to this video and follow these steps: First, access the driver's seat and use the specific extraction keys for the car radio, which are U-shaped and should be inserted into the pair of holes on the sides of the radio. Apply inward pressure and pull them towards you to extract it. Use a pointed object to pry and lift the plastic trim surrounding the gear lever; under this trim, there are screws that need to be removed, and then use a pointed object again to remove the dashboard panel around the air vents. At this point, the dashboard is free and can be pulled towards you. Then take the new car radio and position it, making all the electrical connections, reconnect the antenna connector, and reassemble everything in reverse order.
