malcolm Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Apparently this has been covered on the board before but a search didn't come up with anything. I want to get to the back of the radio so I can plug into the rear speaker connector. Is there an easy way to remove the radio? Help would be appreciated. Link to comment
gcp Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Remove the l/h side tupperware, this will give you access to the radio box and all the connections that enter it. Radio is easily removed from the box with the prong type removal tools easily and cheaply obtained in the UK. Link to comment
Mark K Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Pick up a set of these at Autozone or similar. I think mine are probably from a Ford or Mazda. Works fine. Link to comment
Merlinpedaler Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Two pieces of bent metal coat hanger will do the the job just fine. Link to comment
Rottweiler Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Once you get that radio out (easy job) you'll want to look at my entries in this thread http://bmwsporttouring.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/443066/page/0/fpart/2/vc/1 for pinout info. Link to comment
PPDGene Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 If you need the romoval tool, I have one you can have. I traded my RT for a GS and still have the radio removal tool. Just let me know. Link to comment
malcolm Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 A big thank you to all those who helped with me solve this problem. I'm happy to say "Problem Solved". Now I'm listening to radio and cassettes through my helmet by turning the fader to "Rear Speakers". It was a learning curve. Guided every step of the way by you guys and fellow board member, Keith Haynes. All images and text... gratefully appreciated. Link to comment
