Title of thread pretty much sums it up. My Roadster came with the Alpine CDE-9881 head unit installed and I need to remove it to have other maintenance performed. Anyone removed an Alpine ? If so, what are the correct removal keys ?? Same as keys for original Becker head unit ??

 

Not the same keys as the original headunit.

Per the manual:

Kind of hard to see I guess but they just looked like square handles with long rectangle extensions??

Make ur own !

Parts required : 2 PC slot fillers ( the flat kind from an old, old PC )
and a pair of tin snips.

cut the fillers to where you have a 1/4" wide blade about 3" long.

( flatten them back out after the cutting, they will curl )

 

All,
In the event this specific question is posed in the future:
1. Alpine CDE-9881 model is discontinued.
2. So don't bother with Crutchfield as the original 9881 removal keys were part of the shipped package.
3. The correct p/n is: 07-01964Z01. You'll need (2). They cost $1.09 each.
4. Available through www.pacparts.com. These folks have factory replacement parts for all manner of
stereo head units.
