How do you change radios in a Nissan 200sx?

Answer 1

Between the hazard and defroster switch is a plastic piece that you can pop out with a flat headed screwdriver. Remove the one phillips head screw that is located behind it. After that you can use a panel remover tool or a flat headed screwdriver and gently pry the stereo bezel out from the retainer clips holding it on. After that is removed there are four screws, two on each side. Once you remove these the stereo will pull out. There are connectors for the stereo harness and antenna on the back. Pull the connectors out from the back of the stereo. Do not cut the stereo harness because you can purchase stereo harness adapters at stores like Walmart and Best Buy usually for less than $10. Keep the metal brackets that are on the sides of the factory stereo because you can use them to install your new stereo. I would recommend a nice double din dvd or navigation capable unit. The metal brackets from the old stereo will work nicely in helping you install your new stereo and you shouldn't need to buy a separate install kit, unless you go with a more affordable single din unit.
