BassJunkie Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I'm putting my cd player in my ranger for right now until I get a permanent ride. Is there anyway to make the clip things to pull out the stock head unit? They were $5 for a pair of bent metal things at walmart and I didn't have enough money on me to buy itafter buying the installation shit.

majorpayne Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I dont think so, i had a buddy who worked at CC and he had a box full of those keys to take out the stock h/u's. Iono maybe you might be able to use a small screwdriver. Just dont break nothin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just dont break nothin and I'm not going to break anything, because if I happen to get a new vehicle I'm going to return it to stock.

BassJunkie Posted June 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I'll do this up tomorrow I think I'm going to wire the head unit to the plug right now. Thanks for the quick feedback! I'll let you know how it turns out Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.

BassJunkie Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) Yeah I totally didn't live up to my word, forgot to let you know how it turned out. Well I made some ford removal things, they wouldn't pull it all the way out so I got ticked, and took off two bolts above the heater controls and pulled that entire plate off and walla. also the ford rear speakers kept bottoming out, so I cut out the original hole a little bit and squeezed pioneer 4way 6x9's in there Edited July 4, 2007 by BassJunkie Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.

jsmoke222000 Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 just cut 2 pieces of cloths hanger 8"'s long, bend them in a U shape and put them in the factory holes. use a small screw driver to get the radio started out of the dash. once you get it started it should slide right out with no problem.
