[s-cars] Concert radio install/removal

[ron kirkham]

Hello all,

I purchased a Concert head unit from a fellow lister with the intent of
using it in my 95.5 S6A to control a Phatbox.  I installed the Concert head
unit several months ago with no issues, didn't even need to enter the
security code.  Now, I am finally installing the harness and the Phatbox and
need to remove the head unit to complete this.  I have the correct radio
removal tools, which worked on the original radio but they don't seem to
"release" anything in the head unit slots, and I can't get the radio out of
the dash. I definitely don't want to break anything by tugging too hard on
it.  I looked again at the old head unit, but can't figure out what the
tools are not releasing.  Just for grins, I used the exact same tools on a
friends TT which has the Concert head unit and they worked fine.

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this?  I'd love to get this
little project wrapped up, but am stumped.  I really don't want to go
ripping out the dash to get at this.  Oh, and for whatever reason, since
trying to remove the head, it now is not functioning.  Maybe I managed to
unplug something in the process of trying to remove?

Thanks,
