How to Properly Dismantle the Radio on a Citroen C5

Model: Citroen C5 DC, MK 1 - Years 2000-2008
Part: Car stereo

Dismantle the radio of a Citroen C5? Use plastic trim removal tools. Insert the tools at the side of the plastic trim of the radio, pulling the frame towards you. Unscrew the securing screws on the sides of the radio: carefully extract the radio while being mindful of the various wiring (disconnect the power connectors and the antenna cable). Install the original radio or a generic brand with the appropriate adapter for the input and connector terminals. Once the new radio is secured, screw in the securing screws.
