Harmony radio removal tool

Arryhall · 3rd June 2017, 21:46

Hello everyone! I have a Parrott system I want to stick in my car, until I get a new multi-function touch screen thing anyway. Only problem is, I can't get the harmony system out to stick the parrot in! Has anyone got a removal tool I can borrow for literally 2 minutes and I'll send it back?
Thanks people.

If you can find a thin, semi rigid piece of plastic, cut a couple of long narrow strip, then push them into the release slots, you should feel when they lift the clips, and should then be able to pull the unit out ...

Cheers dude. I had looked for something to use but was somewhat worried I may knacker something. Now you've said this, I'll have a go with a metal shim I have.
Thanks.

An old store card will supply the necessary plastic, should your shim fail.

You don't need any special tools, remove the heater controls then push the clips from the inside

If you could also fit my Parrott system, that would be great, but you is a bit of a trek away from me!
