hi all

im not very mechanically minded but how do i install my sterio into the car. i gave it a go at taking out the existing radio but after a couple of layers of eletronics i gave up.

it looks like its bolted in from the inside. do i have to get it pro done or is an easy job?

its a 99 toyota avensis, and its the original cd player, single din and all that

aha.

take the ashtray out, then pull the facia forwards and off.

then you'll see the screws holding the stereo cage in. you'll probably need a wiring adaptor.

Rooske in Dunshaughlin Business Park will install any radio.

you just need a Toyota>ISO adaptor harness. Halfords or your local Toyota dealer can supply. alternatively Autoleads on the net have them.
