A pair of extractors are required (available from Ebay etc ) but these can be made from 2 pieces of bent, wire
coat-hanger or 4 small drills(using the blunt end) or 4 small Allen Keys
or 4 small screwdrivers or 4 nails or even 4 darts.

An assistant is useful to pull the radio out whilst you are releasing the 4
securing clips

note: on some radios , these 4 holes are protected by 4 small screws. These
can be unscrewed using the appropriate size of Allen key.

I need a radio/cd, that would work with my steering wheel control

im sorry but i must be blunt the people who installed your deck were lazy instead look up factory wheel control module on google there is a system that (as long as the deck has any type of remote) allows you to hook this up run a small wire with a out put laser to the front of your deck acting as a remote control if this infact is not the case use crutchfield.com enter in your car information look threw the decks when you find one you like look in eccesorys if its not an option it wont be there :) honestly the jvd avx 820 is amazing for the price check it out it will work with your controls

Chevrolet kalos blaupunkt radio removal problem

Remove the secuirty panel from the front o f the unit.
with a small fine flat bladed screwdriver remove the two facia strips - one either side, CAREFULLY! they are on clips.
You should find four 10mm bolts holding the whole frame in, remove these and you may need to fit a subframe to re-fit your new unit.
Fit your new unit or frame into place, replace the bolts - don't over tightem them - and the trim.
Fit your new unit - Happy motoring!

How to remove a blaupunkt santa cruz mp36

I'm afraid its a little bit late for corsamad11 but I've just spent hours finding that too much messing about taking a Blaupunkt Santa Crux MP36 in and out of your dashboard will almost render this great quality radio almost useless. Not being securely fixed in the dasboard.
The radio is held inside the mounting bracket by a metal strip each side which are supposed to spring closed to secure the unit. When the two keys are inserted each side of the radio they are supposed to push out these metal strips and at the same time hook onto each side of the radio behind two little lugs. This may work a few times but thats about all. The metal strips don't spring closed and the removing keys don't hook on the unit to pull it out.
Fiddle about with the keys inserted in each slot and at the same time try to push the unit further inside the dash. When this is achieved the mounting bracket lugs can be straightened out and the bracket can be removed with a narrow screwdriver as installed.
Just a very poor and flimsy design on a much loved radio.
