Do you want to remove the car radio from your Kia Sportage but don’t know how? Let’s see in this video how to remove the original stereo. Remove the trim panels on either side of the stereo using a plastic lever (where the air vents are located); detach them from the dashboard.

Remove the central plastic frame. Once the stereo is free from constraints, unscrew the securing screws on either side using a screwdriver.

Pull the stereo out with your hands and disconnect the cables (power and antenna). To reassemble, follow the disassembly steps in reverse.
