Want to replace the stereo in a Mercedes SL? Let's remove the stereo to replace it with a newer model. Insert the release keys into the holes on the plastic trim of the stereo, pull the stereo towards you as shown in the video, and carefully extract the stereo while being mindful of the various wiring (disconnect the power connectors and the antenna cable).
