It is for CDR 220...sounds like i have to use a lot of force to pull it out. I'll give it a try. Thanks for all the response.

You will know when the tools are property inserted. They will CLICK in and not come out until the readio is removed.

Once the tool clicks in you have to push the tools away from each other and then pull the radio out. It will require some strengh.

Agree with previous poster -- there will be a click.

I didn't do this but have seen it done -- you can put a tapered screw driver through the finger holes in the tools to give you more leverage pulling it out.

Once out, you have to press on the side of the radio to release the tools.

I had trouble putting the radio back in - wires in the way. I believe you can remove the cup holders above (at least they were above the radio in my Box) to help with the reinstall.
