Double din hi line unit removal help needed!

jonleomartin · 13th February 2018, 20:13

Hi everyone. I cannot seem to remove my head unit. I have removed the two screws holding the metal plate on the head unit in but still can not pull it out. A video on YouTube makes it look so easy! Any ideas?

They are a tight fit, persevere & it'll come

If you pull the knob off (bottom right iirc) you will see a screw that needs to be turned, this will enable the unit to be pulled out!

Thank you Neil. I have got it out now, seemed to be the left one on mine. I do seem to have a problem with the new cd player though as the cables do not fit together with the original wires. Any ideas what I need to pair up the cd player ones to the old ones from the double din?

Depend on what sort of unit you have.
If it’s a standard 2 din, and you have the wiring loom for the 2 iso plugs should be plug and play except for your steering controls ( if fitted)
As for your CD stacker, not sure the units can be wired to use the stacker as they have way more capacity on their sd cards.
