With the help of a friend that is very knowledgeable I put an Avic 910BT in my 2010 EX. However we had the wrong dash kit. So we put it all in but had to order the dash kit.

It arrived, but firend is not available for awhile and I would like to install myself - I am fine with the install part but for the life of me cannot figure out how to remove the factory trip around the Head Unit (without damaging it).

Can Anyone direct me to pictures of that part? I have looked at numerous posts on here about installs but not seen any details on the trim removal.

Thanks,
Ian

At the very bottom of either side is a slot....you can feel it with your finger.

Put a cloth around a straight slot screwdriver and twist.

Thanks!

Worked great for me. The diagram was perfect. Thanks again.

Your welcome....isn't this a great forum?? Hope your install went well!

Sure is

Definitely a great forum. Got some great ideas on here. I bought my first element in 2005 - sadly that one got crunched by a semi.

This is the first aftermarket system I have installed in a car since my old high school car back in the 80s.

It has gone very well with some minor hiccups - right now having some XM reception issues (another thread).

Thanks again.
