Instructions for Removing the Car Radio

Model: Mercedes Classe M W163 - Years 1997-2005
Part: Car stereo

To remove the car radio, you need the appropriate extraction keys to insert into the slots located at the lower corners: the keys must be inserted with the notches facing inwards and pushed until fully engaged to release the radio's retaining springs. Once the radio is released, pull it forward enough to access the rear and disconnect the connectors: before performing this operation, ensure you have the unlock code, which is essential for the subsequent reactivation.
