Default How do I remove the stock radio for '99 Prelude?

Can anyone help me with this? Is it a long and painful process? If you are able to show steps in pictures that would be a plus!

ok, but where is the safest place on the trim to pry a part so I dont break it?

take two small flathead screwdrivers with a cloth(so you dont scratch the trim) and pry away from the console from the inside side sections

OK! It was easier than I thought. It took only a few seconds to remove the trim, them unscrewed four screws (two on each side). Thanks guys.

The flat heads worked perfect without any scratches. I got the security code and took it to the dealership this morning...now my radio works again, finally!
