• The radio/vent trim bezel is held in place with 4 spring clips. With a wide flat tool (a 3" plastic spackle tool works great), gently pry on each vertical side and carefully pull the bezel out a little at a time until it is free. The red areas in the center picture are the felt-lined receptacles that the bezel spring clips fit in to, which shows the general area of where to pry when removing the bezel.

• The radio is secured with four phillips screws, one in each corner.

• Slide the radio straight out and remove the wiring harnesse(s), antenna connector, and CD changer connector (if equipped). 1999-2001 models may have an additional single wire connector for the PCI connection and also a ground wire connection. Note that on the new 2002 and up models the antenna is locked onto its connector on the back of the radio. The outside collar of the antenna connector must be slid back in order to release the cable.

• Located under the rear passenger-side seat, removal of the Infinity amplifier is pretty much self-explanatory. Four nuts to remove, and two wire harnesses to unplug. The photo at far right shows the simple circuit board of the Amp, the only component inside the unit.

• With a wide flat tool (3" plastic putty knife or similar, as shown in upper left photo), gently pry the dash trim panel upwards starting at either end. You can then get your fingers under the lip and lift it up, working your way to the opposite end. The trim is held in place by four spring clips. There are no parts or wires attached to the trim cover.

• The tweeters are held in place by two #2 phillips screws with 7mm hex heads. A 7mm open end wrench works best, or you can use a very short or right-angled screwdriver.

  Door panel removal:

• Remove the 3 door panel screws (above left, first photo):

  1. Phillips head, located inside the pull-handle pocket tray.

  2. Torx screw, located behind the chrome door handle. This is also referred to as a "nutsert" and requires a Torx T-25 bit. The opening to access the screw is very small so a screwdriver-style T-25 works best.

  3. Phillips head screw, located on the upper right top area (by the mirror bezel). It is covered by a round plastic trim plug that needs to be popped out (a small flat screwdriver works best for this).

• Using a trim removal tool (Miller tool # C-4829 or similar), detach each of the 10 plastic trim panel fasteners. Lift door panel upward and out to separate it from the door. The easiest way I have found is to use a plastic putty knife or similar tool to pry one of the bottom lower fasteners loose. Once that is done you can reach underneath with your fingers and pull the door trim off by hand, slowly working around the edges to pop the rest of the fasteners loose as you go along.

• While holding the loose trim panel in place, remove both of the metal actuator rods. They are secured with yellow snap-on plastic retainer clips that need to be pried away from the side of the metal rod. Lift the rods straight up and out of their sockets.

• Unhook the wiring connectors. One for the mirror, and the large white main connector (for power locks/windows). Vehicles with the day/night mirrors will have an additional 2-pin harness on the drivers side to unplug. The connector ends have a tab on one side that needs to be pushed in to disengage them.

• The 6x9" speaker is attached with 4 phillips screws. Remove and then disconnect the speaker wire harness.

• Open lid and remove 4 the phillips head screws that run along the top edge of the compartment hinge. Lift compartment housing straight up an inch or so until it stops and then pull straight out to remove.

• Remove 6 phillips screws that attach changer to bracket, 3 on each side. A very short or angled screwdriver is needed for one screw on each side. Unhook wire connector on left side. The unit can now be slid out away from the bracket.

• The factory support bracket is attached with 4 nuts. A 10mm deep socket is required to remove them.
