Re: Can't Remove Radio from Dash

I have same problem My right key goes in fine and catches. Left side stuck won't come out. Now due to frustration now key broken off in radio slot. Do use a reciprocating saw to get the radio out now?

Did you ever get the radio out? If so how?
I have same problem but the key on the left
side has now broken off from me getting frustrated
and the right key slides in and out but doesn't
catch. What do I do?

I ended up taking mine to Best Buy. They had much sturdier keys. The ones I was using were very thin and flimsy. His heavy duty ones did it with no problem. I felt like an idiot. haha
