Instructions for Removing the Car Radio

Model: Hyundai Sonata - Years 2004-2014
Part: Car stereo

To remove the original car radio from this vehicle, you will need to take off some dashboard elements to access the relevant fixing screws. Begin by removing the central trim piece of the dashboard by unscrewing the screws located inside the closure line of the glove compartment door. Once this trim is removed, you can unscrew the fixing screws of the two buttons located on either side of the radio and finally unscrew those of the radio itself to extract it from its housing by disconnecting the connectors.
