Long time since I did this & it wasn't a Landrover but a couple of bits of bent coat hanger used to do the job , it was only something to push a spring clip back and allow you to pull the radio out.
May have changed to something more secure now but it used to work. Cheers 2011 Defender XS 110 Station Wagon - Rejected 2008 Discovery 3 XS Auto (Gone) 1997 Discovery ES Auto 300TDI (Traded in on a flat bed) |

Did give this a try, the coathanger bits fit the hole but don't result in any movement |

The image of the radio unit is right, but the tool looks like it's for a 4 hole rather than 2? I'll give them a ring though |

When wiring up my auxilliary lights I just popped along to my local dealers and asked if they would be kind enough to release it for me which they did!!! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!
Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

Try a long 2.5mm allen key, I believe. I took mine out a few months back- about 3 mins (the bolts are quite long) to get both loose enough to pop out and the cassette / radio pulls out easy as after that.
Good luck |

I gave Mud a call, and it seems that paullo was right, allen keys are the solution

If its a genuine LR radio/cassette, Paullo is right, there are 2 allen headed bolts holding the head in NOT the tabs that require wire/prongs to remove, like most radios. The bolts are set back in the head a long way, so you wont see them without looking with a torch. Last edited by Matt on 21st Jun 2011 7:40pm. Edited 1 time in total |
