Don't want to break anything! Bought my brother a new radio so his POS tape deck needs to come out.

Is it easy?

Try the site below. Use the Camry info, the two cars are very close in layout.

I checked that link, thanks.

I did try to pry the radio surround off but it feels like it's sticking in the lower right. I don't want to snap anything!

The face plate has a plastic clip molded into the plate on each side of the lower plate side area.

Use a taped over flat blade screwdriver to prevent scratching. Gentle!! pry out the plate at the lower side area.

Ok so it really does all just pop out?

a specialist???? all he needs is a cable harness and changing his head unit shouldnt be much harder than filling the gas tank. He's almost there, it's hard to get out in the top and bottom right corners. as long as he applys direct pressure underneath them he's fine.

I redid my entire audio system, wiring and everything and didnt break a thing.
