Removing the Radio Controller

Model: Saab 9 3 MK 2 - Years 2002-2014
Part: Car stereo

This video explains how to remove the radio from a Saab 9 3. Use the tip of a small flathead screwdriver to unclip the clips inside the air grille. Using a screwdriver and a plastic lever simultaneously, gently remove the block with the attached grille. Now that it has been extracted, you can see the three spring clips that were holding it in place. At this point, you will have access to two screws: unscrew them with a Torx screwdriver and remove the stereo controller block. To remove it completely, you must first disconnect its electrical connection.
