Hi. In order to get a new code for my radio, i have been asked to remove my radio and look at the seriel number on the side. I know this may sound stupid and very girlie, but how do i go about removing a radio out of my car? Please help!! Thanx

Helps if you let us know what car/ what radio etc

Different cars have special keys - purchased through dealers - but usually you can find them in the glove or in the back of the radio inst manual.

Halfords can usually do this for you.

The most common set up is to have small holes or slots either side of the radio. Go onto Ebay, buy a set of radio removal tools (should not cost more than ~�5). Find the tools that fit your holes, slot them it, pull the radio out GENTLY, disconnect the leads and viola!
