sanjsanj Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 hi guys!i have a sony XR 6759 fitted to my car....i'm about to buy the tools to take a sony out of its cage but was wondering whether anyone knew where to insert those tools. cheers for the help! edit: hereswhat the tools look like Quote
lydanial Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 iirc most of the sonys have a plastic surrounding edge that can be removed and the you stick them in the sides.. they work by then pushing them in, you will feel some resistence and then you should be able to remove it quite easily. this is due to the little 'hook' bits on the removal tool. either that or im pretty damn wrong ;) Quote

Guest neil_wiles Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 Sanjsanj I am pressuming it has a removable front panel... remove front panelInsert Keys each side in slotsPull whole unit forward. The slots are not visible until you remove the front panel Quote
sanjsanj Posted June 8, 2006 Author Report Posted June 8, 2006 Cheers neil!! is it possible to do it with home made tools? Quote

Masked Marauder Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 IIRC the one Sanj is trying to remove uses a pair of flat keys into slots at the sides, just inside the bezel. Quote

Ahh....should have read....sorry sanj, i have a 6006e ford unit with 4 holes in it to put thingies in to get it out, Appologies! :D Quote

Guest neil_wiles Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 I have managed to do it with a couple of rigid cable ties but its more luck than judgement. Quote
sanjsanj Posted June 8, 2006 Author Report Posted June 8, 2006 ok, thanks for all the info guys. I'll try removing it tomorrow with some "home made tools"! :blink: Quote
