I just picked up a VW GTI for a new DD and this being the first VW I have ever owned, I am reading up a lot on the vwvortex forum about things. I am looking to remove the stock head unit and I have read about the little tools that are required. Being that I will probably only need the tool once in my life, I was wondering if anyone on here had a set of 4 that I could possibly borrow for a couple minutes to remove my head unit. If anyone has them and could lend a hand let me know. I can offer a couple cold beers from the fridge while I remove the unit. Thanks.

 

Easier to make your own buddy, search it, i just modified some ones i had from kenwood.

 

I made a set from some extra pieces of sheet metal I had laying around. First you cut them into rectangular strips. Then, cut one end at a 45* angle. Make 4 of them.

BTW, you're not removing the radio to do the speaker polarity reverse are you?

 

I've got the tool needed.



Nothing new to add to this thread.. Dan already hooked you up with what to do.

 

Thanks. I will run up to homedepot tomorrow and get a small piece of sheet metail.

I am pulling out the stock headunit to install my alpine unit w/ ipod connector.
