Removing the Car Radio with Release Keys

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

The following guide demonstrates a seemingly simple operation: removing the car radio with release keys. Inserting the four keys into the designated holes will act on the springs that release the radio from its position. The keys, having sharp points, latch onto the mechanism's protrusion. Thanks to this latch, you can safely extract the radio without any damage, unlike what could happen using makeshift tools. Once the radio is extracted, disconnect the rear cables to which the radio is connected, and the job is done.
