Car Radio Removal Instructions

Model: BMW Serie 7 E38, MK 3 - Years 1994-2001
Part: Car stereo

Removing the original car radio is very easy, but before disconnecting it, ensure you have the security code, which is essential for reactivation. With that said, locate the caps at both ends of the car radio and open them to access the mounting screws. Once the screws are removed, pull the car radio forward to slide it out, then disconnect the FM antenna jack and the signal connector, which requires sliding the lock like a drawer.
