Remove the control panel of the centre console using a screwdriver, remembering to disconnect the power connector. Unscrew the screw at the back.

Now use the screwdriver as a lever to extract the plastic trim. Use a T15 Torx screwdriver to remove the 4 screws holding the radio in place.

Pull the radio out. Disconnect the power connectors and the antenna cable. Install the new radio, using the original trim (suitable for 2 DIN structures), ensuring to reconnect the new contacts properly.
