Remove the Radio from a Kia Sorento

Model: Kia Sorento MK 1 - Years 2002-2009
Part: Car stereo

Do you want to remove the radio from your Kia Sorento but don't know how to proceed? Let's see how to remove the original stereo in this guide. Remove the trim around the stereo using a plastic lever (where the air vents are located) and detach it from the centre console. Once the stereo is free from constraints, use a screwdriver to unscrew the securing screws located on either side. Pull the stereo out with your hands and disconnect the connectors (for power and the antenna). To reassemble, reverse the disassembly steps.
