Not sure about a 2005 explorer but I know how to remove the radio in a 2005 F350. 1. at the seam on top where the dash face meets the top of the dash, grab at the seam and pul down and toward you till it pop loose. 2. The bottom. The bottom will pop loos the same way, it is just a bit tighter. Start on the right side (nearest the driver door) Be careful not to pull it out to far, you do not want to pull and wire loose. Once you have it poped loose; 3. starting on the right side start disconnecting the wire connections working your way to the drivers door, Note each connector is different, tool that will help needle nose and regular plyers, a small straight screwdriver. 4. once all wire connectors are off the dash face cover can be removed life it up and off, it is a tight fit and feels like it does not want to be remove. Make sure all wires are disconnected and you will be alright. 5. The Radio. Four screws I found its easyer to just remove them and the radio will slid forward. Once yo have it pulled out it is easy to disconnect the antena and electric connector and its out. 6. Putting the dash face plate back on. Put the bottom of the dash cover in place first, don't snap it in place just get it where it belongs. 7. Reconnect the electrical connections. starting for the right working to the left. 8. Snap the top of the dash face back into place all along the top. 9. Start on the left side near the drivers door. Looking at eye level so you can see what you need to do, pull down on the face and move it into place then snap it in place moving to the right. Notes: If is much easyer to remove the dash cover and the four radio retaining screws. It will take less time to remove them then it will to fight with them tring to wiggle the radio loose and out. It seems harder then it is, and looks like it will be a more involved then it really is. Just be patiant and with a little care you can do it. Putting it back together is easy, just revers the order, and double check all your electrical connectors - make sure they are all connected and locked in place before popping the dash cover back in place.

There is probably 4 square holes on the radio itself. There is a special tool that goes in those holes. Otherwise find something that will fit and jam it in all 4 holes at the same time and pull on the radio.

Pull the cover around the radio and heating system off... start at the top and pry it off. Do this gently but you need to pull pretty hard... It has 6 clips I believe.. 2 on top middle and bottom... then just unscrew the 2 screws at the bottom of the radio and it will slide right out. Just did this on my 2003 Explorer. Hope that helps!
