99 SD CC 4x4 CD player question.

You don't have to remove the dash to get the stereo out. There are four holes around the unit, you can buy tools to fit in them to remove the unit, look at your local parts store. Four pieces of steel wire also work, but it is a tad challenging.

What kind of tools? Are these some kind of push-and-release or twist-out as in threaded? Are we talking hex head or torx?

Thanks!

I cut both the ends off a coat hanger, using them making two U shaped tools. They should be about 3-1/2 inches long. Bend the U just a bit until the ends fit the holes on either side of the radio. Push them in roughly an inch and then away from the face plate at the same time, releasing pressure in the inner springs, then while still applying outward pressure, pull the radio unit out. It may take a good deal of pressure, since the coat hanger wire is a bit smaller in diameter than the tools made to do this, but it works just fine for me.

Or Wal-mart has the tool for a few bucks, if you don't want to mess with making one.
