colsoop Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Chap, step away from the tools, remove the original cage, it uses 8 mm bolts (i think) to hold it in place. Once the cage has been removed align the stereo's screw holes up with the original cage's holes, use the screws that came with the headunit.(make sure you get the cage the right way it is in 2 pieces) You will need to reattach the brown box and the white box back on to the cage too. Then bolt the cage back on to its mounts. If the stereo has a removable facia now is the time to remove it as you don't want to scratch it refitting the dash panel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Don't worry about it mate, we all get carried away and go a bit heavy with the tools sometimes. This is me when I fitted my SSQV; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
