How to Remove the Radio from a BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 E81, E82, MK 1, E87 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Car stereo

Removing the radio on this model is quite straightforward but requires some care during the disassembly of the surrounding elements. Before proceeding, ensure you have the unlock code if needed. Start by detaching the trim in the centre of the dashboard, followed by the climate control buttons just below the radio. Once access to the radio's fixing screws (two at the top and two at the bottom) is cleared, you can complete the disassembly by pulling it from its housing and disconnecting the relevant connectors.
