Remove the center console, then remove 4 screws holding the radio in place.

1. Open your console lid... there are 2 screws located toward the rear with little caps on them. remove the caps and remove the 2 nuts.

2. Then... lift up on the tracktion control button piece in front of the console... it just pops out and snaps back in... there are 2 more nuts to remove, its all one piece (unplug the cigarette lighter harness)... there is another 2 srews... under the ash tray and by the cigarette lighter.

3. Then one more screw buy the ignition... you have to pop out the vent piece by the ignition with a flat head screwdriver... and there is one more small screw to be removed there.

4. Then slowly pull on the whole center console and pull it out. You will have to reach around while removing it and unplug the cigarette lighter by the ash tray.

5. The rest is just the removal of the radio and harnesses. Should only be 2 screws holding it. The antenna is snug tight into the radio... you will have to pull on it hard to get it out.

Good luck! :)
