Default How do I get the head unit out? PLEASE HELP ME!

I am way lost right now and could use some help

The center console hard plastic is off, I cant get the leather under it off. To the left and right of the head unit are two little plastic panels. Those are also off.
If I need to take off the hindge door that covers the stock head unit then how do I get it off? PLEASE HELP ME!!! Day light is running out!!!


Thanks in advance!

If I recall correctly:

Remove the entire trim piece including the door- it will also have the vents

Pry this piece out with a screwdriver protected with tape!!

Once the "clips" are out a bit you can pull briskly on a corner of the door, or continue to pry with screwdriver

Be Carful!

Once that is off it will be obvious

Also for what it's worth, to remove the HU you don't need to remove the other things you already have.

Thanks Nine Grand, thats my licence plate lol. Yeah I figured that much, I broke one clip of the leather I got the vents out and I pulled the head unit out (I wish I had a shop manual). I think its going to be an all nighter

Any advice on removing the door panels? lol

Wish me luck guys!

Do a search and you might come up with a few threads relating to door panel removal. I remember reading one or two a while back.

Also might check Lucids site, can't remember if he has the instuctions online.

Good luck!

Drunken_Monk,

I wish I were home earlier to answer your question. Lucid Automotive's web site has some very easy instructions: Lucid Automotive's S2000 Aftermarket Radio Installation Guide. FWIW, Lucid Automotive is a sponsor of the S2KI web site.

I found these instructions very useful. YMMV. Good luck.
