u need a stereo pulling tool. you can get it at any auto parts store just ask and they will tell what kind to buy. there should be two holes on either side of the stereo u just insert the tool, and pull the stereo out. You don't need a stereo puller if you have a thick wire hanger. Cut the straight parts of the hanger with snips into 2 lengths, each about 6 inches long. Bend each into a "U" shape so that both ends will fit into the holes on the stereo. Insert both "U's" into the four holes on either side of the stereo and simultaneously pull each to the side so that the wire will compress the spring locks that hold the stereo in place. Once you have a good grip with each U against the stereo, slowly start pulling it out while keeping the pressure on. You may have to wiggle it a bit to get it started. Save the ten bucks a stereo puller will cost.

How do you take the factory radio out of a 99 mercury cougar?

In order to take the factory radio out of a 1999 Mercury Cougar you must have DIN tools. Once you make sure you have these, you can insert the tools into the screws on both sides of the stereo. After the tools are inserted, you need to push the tools to the outside of the stereo (slightly) to release the lock mechanism. After the mechanism is released, you can pull the stereo forward and out of the dash. Finally, you need to remove all the connectors and the antenna.

How do you take out a stereo in a 1992 Mercury Cougar xr7?

If it's anything like the Cougar LS, there should be 4 holes in the factory stereo. There is a U shaped removal tool that you can get (they come in pairs). They will have instruction on how to pull the stereo on them. If you don't want to be bothered to do this yourself, just have the place you got the new radio from install it for you. Should cost an extra $100 or so.
