How to Remove the Original Radio from a Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Car stereo

Is the radio in your Fiesta due for replacement? Here’s how to remove and replace it from the dashboard. First, you need to remove the plastic trim around the central dashboard (original or generic radio). Release the locking clips using metal keys: insert the keys and pull to fully unlock the radio. Remove the radio by hand and disconnect the cables (power and antenna). Secure the new radio with all the necessary components. At the end of the radio installation, all that’s left is to fit a new one and test its functionality in all aspects. Always keep the removal keys for future disassembly.
