Default How to take the stock radio out?

I am planning to install my new head unit over this weekend and also change the radio door. I tried to take the radio door out by force but could not do it.
How should I take out my head unit and the radio door?

The whole radio door, along with the trim and vents will pop out. You just have to pull on it good, and try not to be to scared to do it. Open the radio door and pull towards the back of the car. I would pull on the passenger side until it pops up, then the driver side and it will come right out. Then you will see 4 screws holding the headunit in. Take those out with your phillips screwdriver and it pulls out.

open radior door grab with both hands on the door and pull slowly till the two clips on the bottom of unclip. When you did that now get a screw driver and protect the area around the dash board with some tape as well as the screw driver if you want. now stick the screw driver between the dashboard and the top part of the radio sorround and try to remove the clips fromt he top and it will come right out. once you do that your radio is held on by some philip screws and thats it

...or read the FAQ:

Once the radio door assembly is out, it's pretty obvious how you remove the head unit.
