You guys with rims don't teach your gf/bf how to drive a stick. Big mistake.
all you have to do is release the tab which is spring-tensioned into the radio... if you can get to any kinda way you can pull on it.. but idk why the DIN tool wouldn't work....alright i'm super ****** pissed at this radio. the mother will just not come out. i'm pretty confident that i do need 2 sets of din removal tools, however the left side comes out like butter, and the right side will not move at all. i even tried using both tools on the right side, but it's as if the place where they're supposed to snap into is completely stripped. my guess is the jackhole previous owner removed it before and f'ed it all up. my friend even tried his switchblade to pry it out with no avail. wtf can i do???

Just a FYI for you guys.
Ive had SAMCO silicone hose on my MSP for about 2 years now and they are ALL cracking and falling apart. Ive used no cleaners or solvents on them. I discovered this when one of them just popped off under boost and car ran like s***. Silicone is supposed to take heat and be better than those rubber ones but i think im going back to rubber. SO check your hoses if you replaced them cause they might be brittle or cracking.
i've never seen a carbon fiber dgm lip, wtf! I'm going to try and photoshop a cf hood on you're car tonight,
haha, hope you don't mind![]()

Like you said, previous owner might have bent the tabs so the key isnt working right. Since one side comes out your obviously using them correctly. Try bending the key slightly either way so maybe you can catch it in the right spot. Otherwise you can remove the glove box and maybe peek on that side to see whats goin on.
