Hi


I think of installing a Blaupunkt radio/nav instead of the standard radio/cd
which came with my Corolla (model Sol, E12T). How can be the radio/CD be
romoved? I could not find any screws, clips, holes or something like it.


Thanks


Peter

What year of Corolla is it? The radio itself is easy to remove once you get
the plastic trim off. You'll see the four screws that hold the metal radio
bracket into the dash. The plastic radio trim invariably has clips which
you loosen by carefully prying with a small flathead screwdriver or
something similar. The manual will show you where the clips are and where
to pry. You have to do it carefully to avoid breaking the trim.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

It is a 12/2002 model, the name of the variant is Sol (at least it is
called Sol here in Germany, the one with the aluminium colored panel and
buttons to control the fan, the temperature etc.)

I have checked the panel again a few minutes ago but could not find any hint
where to pry or sometning like this. Any ideas?

Hey Peter...

Have you considered having a local pro do it?
Im sure there is a car audio shop near you. They could
do it quickly, with a warranty, and have you listening to
the new radio already.

Just a thought.
