radio dash removal

Hey guys how do I go about removing the dash piece where the radio is? I want to take the radio out. And yes I already did a search and all i got was the center console removal. Any help is appreciated.

pull the ac knobs off unscrew the screws behind there then just pop it off I always use a butter knife thats quite dull to do the popping.

First you would have to remove the dials on the A/C and then unscrew the screws and carefully remove the plate! Good Luck!!

Pull the knobs of the heat/ac off with your fingers (they pull right out). Then unscrew the the screws under the knobs. The butter knife is to pop out the plastic piece.....

a better way, i think than using a knife, is push on the white a/c unit from behind till the cover pops off. that way you dont accidently scratch anything. just my .02
