How to Remove the Bolero Radio on Skoda Octavia

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 2, 1Z - Years 2004-2012
Part: Car stereo

Using a plastic lever (if you use a metal screwdriver, be careful not to scratch the dashboard), lift the trim of the onboard computer at all points and detach it. Now, using the same method, lift the plastic that was under the previous trim. At this point, the securing screws of the radio will be exposed, which you can then unscrew. Literally pull the radio out and remove it from its housing, then disconnect the wiring. To install the new Bolero radio, proceed in reverse: connect the wiring exactly as it was on the previous one, screw it in, and fit the trims.
