In this video, learn how to easily replace the radio in a Toyota RAV 4 MK3. Using a plastic trim tool to avoid damaging the dashboard, remove the two side panels of the radio. This will expose the four screws, which you need to unscrew with a screwdriver.

At this point, firmly pull the radio unit out of its slot; disconnect the electrical connectors from the unit, using a small screwdriver if necessary. Now, you can install the radio of your choice: for example, the code B0B5QXVXDB on Amazon, priced at £169.99, with free delivery for Prime customers.

Reconnect the electrical connectors, screw the screws back into the dashboard, and replace the side trim panels of the radio. Operation complete.
