I took ours to a local auto audio shop. $60 an hour and the Tech had the whole dash apart and radio out while I watched. He moved so fast it was hard to track each item he did.
Lowest panel below steering column snapped off.
Bezel panel around gauges and radio snaps loose and gained him enough room to remove radio mount bolts behind bezel.
This was the basic but sure I missed some steps.
He determined my problem and was the best $60 spent.
