Removing the radio from a Volkswagen Polo? It's a very simple operation, let's see how to do it. Remove the trim around the radio using a plastic lever (where the air vents are located) and detach it from the central dashboard. Once the stereo is free from constraints, unscrew the securing screws located on either side with a screwdriver.

Pull the radio out of the central dashboard and disconnect the cables (power and antenna). Insert the new radio into the central dashboard, using an adapter for a radio different from the original.
