hey i was trying to help my friend take out his stock stereo and install another one, but i cant figure out how.

 

get a haynes manual

ill tell you but its a PITA

you have to remove all the vents, then the screws behind it, then the screws on the top by the gauge cluster, remove all the switches "cruise", hazard, defrost, all that good stuff, screws behind your ashtray, cup holder EVERYWHERE!!! then remove the center console so you can access the screws under the stereo and voila

What the heck are you talking about?? It takes about 10 minutes dude. You dont need to take all that crap off. Only the center console around the shifter and the ashtray need to be removed. Then unscrew the two screws holding the radio bracket on and you're done.

 

exactly, take off the center console, remove the astray and take out the brackets support the ashtray. there, you will see two bolts, either use a philips or a 8mm (i think?) socket to take it out from underneath.

 

im a moron. i was thinking the dash

the didnt help it either when i was responding......sorry guys, youre right

 

get a 12" extension (1/4 " drive) 8 mm socket and swivell . lay in pass. floor board looking at back of radio . there will be 2, 8 mm bolts . all you have to do is losen them . grab radio and pocket at the same time and pull.
i have been installing stereos for 11 years . never had to pull any dash parts off
