Mk5 radio removal

Postby laggass on Sat Apr 22, 2006 11:47 am

:-? I need help removing the standard tape/radio player in my mk5 zetec, from what i can gather i need to get a release key (or make one) and then stick it in the 4 holes and presto it should pop out. I tried this earlier with a coat hanger but i wasn't sure just what to do to make the radio release. If anyone can give me any further info that'd be very helpful. Thanks. :-?


p.s do i need an adapter lead if i want to conect my clarion head unit? or is the standard connection ready?

if its anything like the mk4 then you need 4 wire coat hanger bits and grab 2 at each side, if you push them out it should just pop out took me about half an hour but worth it. sorry about wording but im tierd :lol: hope it was a help :D

Buy a proper removal tool for £2 from Motor World or Halfords, saves a lot of hassle.

Whwn removing insert tools push out to the side and then pull

ive got the radio out but now the facia adapter which is supposed to be for this model fiesta wont fit properly, its the right size/shape but the 2 top clips are in the wrong place and dont hold on to anything!! is there 2 variations of this adapter or not?? its the FP-07-00-H (silver) I dont know if that H means anything or not though? maybe its the wrong adapter!! Anyone know?
