Re: Removing Radio
There might be a brace from the back of the radio to the front of the cab

Re: Removing Radio
I had a hard time getting my factory cassette radio out, that thing was HUGE. You just have to wriggle it around and find a way to get it out the bottom. It was 15 years ago, I don't recall exactly what angle to twist but I want to say I shoved the back in and up as far as I could to get the shafts free of their holes.

The knobs and little bezels slip right off the radio. Then - you jiggle it around all over the place to pull it out, as mentioned above. K

Re: Removing Radio
loosen the screws that are holding the radio to the dash and remove the nuts that were holding the knobs to the dash
