You just need 4 nails, between 2 & 3 mm diameter, at least 40 mm long. Push them - carefully - into the holes on the sides (1 per hole) when you feel resistance push a bit further & firmer. Once all four are in place simply pull the radio out (cassette slot is good for light grip).
When removing the nails use a twist / pull action. As an alternative to the nails you could get an old wire coathangar and a pair of pliers to create your very own removal tool. If you can't figure out what to do from looking at a picture (loads available on internet) then you shouldn't do it. If you're not comfortable with either of the above, then your best bet is just go to your local car audio shop and ask them to do it for you.

∙ 13y agoYou need a stereo removal tool (or you may get away with a screw driver) wat isn't immediately obvious is that where the tool goes in to the stereo there are some screws that need to be removed by using an allen/hex key. Unscrfew these and the rest is as per usual.

∙ 14y agoFunny I should come across this question today. I have just done this very thing with a radio that was jammed in. I tried removing the glove compartment to get access, but that was of no use, couldn't really get to the back of radio. In the end it was just a big screwdriver and lots of gentle persuasion. The cage is busted now, so will have to find a new one. I assume you know you need a pair of radio removal "keys" to pull the radio out? I got mine from eBay for a couple of quid. These are no good mind, if the radio was installed with a steam hammer. Don't know if this helps, but that's my experience with an Astra Radio.
