Replace the radio on a Kia Picanto. To replace the car radio, remove the plastic cover surrounding the radio.

Use a plastic trim tool to detach the radio's trim from the centre console (where the air vents are located). Unscrew the securing screws on either side of the radio with a screwdriver.

Pull the radio out with your hands and disconnect the cables (power and antenna). Connect the power to the back of the new radio, then secure it in the centre console.

Refit the trim.
