Removing '97 Corolla Factory HU?

stifen · 09-04-2005, 06:06 PM

So I'm trying not to tear the car apart, but I just can't seem to find out how to remove the console so I can take out the factory radio. Anybody have a walk through or can tell me how?

It's for a '97 Corolla CE (not even a tape deck, just am/fm)

Thanks!

OK I didn't find the 97' (99-00) but maybe you can get an idea with this:

If I remember correctly there should be screws on the underside of the radio dash piece, see picture. Once you remove those screws that whole piece should come off and then there should be screew holding the HU in place.

I figured it out.. I got the two lower screws and then it's just clipped on at the four corners. Just kind of have to tug on it for it come out.
