Need help installing car stereo on 1995 Mercury Cougar XR7?

Question

I already have an aftermarket receiver installed, however the CD player stopped working, so I want to put my old one in there. Problem is, I can't get the current one out! I don't believe that you can snap off a panel to get in there. I am wondering if I should use the DIN hooks, although I think those are only for factory unit removal. If anyone can help, it is greatly appreciated!!!

Answer 1

i will not recommend you to do it unless your confident enough.

before pulling the unit you will have to unclick or remove the dash kit surrounding it.

then you have to unscrew the unit from inside and then use clips supplied with the head unit (very hard to describe without diagram)then it can be puled out.

don't use pointed equipment or you may damage/scratch the dash

and see the user manual its all mentioned there.
