To remove the car radio, you need the appropriate extraction keys (which are easily obtainable): insert them into the four slots corresponding to the four corners with the notches facing inwards; once fully inserted, the fixing springs will disengage, allowing you to pull the car radio forward (be careful not to scratch the surrounding plastics) and disconnect the relevant connectors.

In any case, it is advisable to check for any activation code before disconnecting it, as it is necessary for subsequent ignition.
