Anyone knows how to remove the factory stereo system? me and my friend tried taking it out all night long last night but won't be able to do it. or are there any other thread shows u step by step how to take it out?
Pretty easy
1. Take off the 2 plastic doohicky's off each side of the radio
2. Purchase 2 sets of DIY U shaped stereo remover tools. Looks like a U with little circles at the ends.
3. Put into the 4 holes on the side of the radio, pull the tools outward and yank.
Should be it.

Well, there really is 2 small ones and one big one in the middle. You have to put the tools (both of them) in the big one first, then the little ones.
Good luck dude it's a pain in the ass! Don't get impatient and scratch up the trim like I did on my P5.
i already did make bunch of scratches lol but i finally took it out.. i ended up went get a set of car stereo removal kit.. but i can return them lol
