You are only supposed to push the coathanger in just over a 1/4 of the way until you feel contact with the pins, then it will come out.

give a guy in halfords a £5 note and he will get it out for you.

then most probably remove the stereo

all you need is a small flat screw driver down the sides to push the cage pins back??

or take the ash tray out and pull the pins for the cage back into place and slide it out

Ask the local car thieves in your area for a helping hand, i'm sure they'll be able to get it out for you :thumbs:

Why is this bad news :boggle: TBH I don't really care if you can't get a stereo out. I can get one out in about 1 min.

if you've taken the ash tray out, you should be able to get the stereo out easily
