DASH DISASSEMBLY (2003-2004)

Attention! The factory radio must have the AM source selected before being removed from the vehicle.

Attention! A permanent modification to the center console trim bezel will be required. The factory radio will no longer be able to be reinstalled after this modification.

1. Unclip and remove the left and right side panels from the center console. Remove (3) T-20 Torx screws from each side. (Figures A & B)
2. Engage the parking brake then place the gear selector in neutral. Pull up on the gear selector boot just enough to allow the center console trim bezel to be removed. (Figure C)

1. Open the center console, then starting from the back, unclip and release the entire center console trim bezel which also wraps around the radio. Lift up just enough to access the connectors from underneath. Unplug all connectors, then remove the trim bezel. (Figure D)
2. Remove (2) T-20 Torx screws securing the cup holders, then slide the cup holders out and remove them. (Figure E)
3. Remove (4) T-20 Torx screws securing the radio. Slide the radio out, then unplug and remove the radio.
4. Dash Modification: Cut the center console trim bezel to the left and right side of the bottom of the radio opening, slightly above the cup holders. These cuts will have to be perfect as they will be visible. Cut the trim bezel just enough to allow room for the kit. It may be best to leave a little extra, then file the rest. (Figure F)

KIT ASSEMBLY

1. Attach the radio brackets to the radio trim panel using (4) #8 x 3/8" Phillips screws supplied. (Figure A)
2. Slide the radio into the completed assembly, and then secure it to the assembly. (Figure B)

Note: The radio mounting screws must be flush in the brackets so the radio assembly will fit into the dash opening. Screws have been provided in the event they were not provided with the aftermarket radio.

1. Locate the factory wiring harness and antenna connector in the dash, and complete all necessary connections to the radio. Metra recommends using the proper mating adapter from Metra and/or AXXESS. Test the radio for proper operation.
2. Reassemble the dash in reverse order of disassembly.
