So in order to add some variety to the massive ringing noise the piper exhaust is making i set about removing the stock radio. Couldnt remember how the latches worked but used various screw drivers and knives for about an hour before moving to alternate means. Somebody prior to me had obviously attacked it all as the facia was in several pieces. In the end i removed the top glove box and speedo so i could remove the bolts behind the facia and remove it in one piece. Absolute pain!

Removing the top glovebox i also found reels of wires for the alarm system. Ill have to have a big session seeing where that all goes and removing it as it doesnt do anything right now.
Radio removed from the facia I superglued it all back together as I amazingly found all five pieces!

All back together now and i need to refit it. Also the stock radio still has the sticker on it so i can work out the code and get it working. Im going to take it apart and hope to hack an aux into it and then plug a bluetooth receiver into the aux. Its something I want to try but in reality Ill probably be fitting my proper headunit!

Other issue ive found is that because of the manual mirrors i dont have anywhere to put the tweeters for my focal 165vs. Im thinking ill probably just fit the woofers and do without the tweeters which is a shame but there is no where to put them without it being super tacky!
