Hey,

Selling my old car tomorrow :eek: - need to get the Sony Headunit out. I had some HU Keys to get it out but they aren't working!

a) Has anyone any tips for getting it out tonight?
b) Does somewhere like Halfords do a Heatunit removal service, I know it's a simple job but I just can't do it! :o

  • do what the theives would do to steal it,put a screwdriver down the side of it and bend the catches back,while trying to pull it out towards you,sometimes 2 screwdrivers might help.
    ...work permit granted!

    Go to your local Halfords and ask them to pull it for you. If they're noice people, they will do it for free. They can't justify charging much cos it will take them 30s seconds to do.
