: Removing Radio Bezel...

My stock radio is displaying "MECH ERROR" everytime you try to play a CD (probably due to the fact my 3 yr old stuck a quarter in the CD slot) http://i43.tinypic.com/2rwwdj7.gif

Anyway, I need to yank the radio so I can remove the quarter, and hopefully get this thing playing again.

How does this bezel come off ? I'm assuming it just snaps in like every other part, just don't want to break anything.

What about the climate knobs ?

Thanks !!

Have fun trying it that way. Most likely you will crack the clips.

Take off the entire center panel and then push that trim from the inside.

This is the way most members have been removing this panel for the last 6 years. I have yet to hear from anyone that has broken the clips yet.
