Car Stereo Removal Instructions

Model: BMW Serie 7 MK 2, E32, E38, MK 3 - Years 1986-1994
Part: Car stereo

The car stereo is located at the bottom of the center console. To remove it, simply pull it out of its slot: start by disengaging the trim around the stereo to access the side retaining tabs. At this point, use a small screwdriver to press on the springs and release them, then slide the stereo forward to remove it. Once removed, complete the disassembly by disconnecting the rear plugs, including the antenna plug. Make sure you have the activation code for the subsequent power-up.

Once the cover is removed, disconnect the connectors from the coils that feed the spark plugs at the bottom of the cylinder where the coils are housed. Using a socket spanner, unscrew the spark plugs and pull them out. If your socket is magnetised, it will help; otherwise, you will need to use long-nosed pliers, and you're done!
