[QUOTE="bikejunkie223, post: 1321943, member: 563147"] I work at a Honda dealer in the service dept., so here is how it is done (be brave) Set the parking brake, and then with the engine off move the shift lever down to 1. Use a large hook type tool (I use a mac hose remover at work) and hook it behind the black plastic section that extends all the way around the radio, do it lower than higher so if it divots the edge it won't be as noticeable.give it a good solid tug (this is the bravery part) the entire black panel is held on by clips, they are tight, and there is a tone of them. once you get an edge loose, you can work your way around and then unplug the heater controls and remove it. The radio/pocket are then held in by brackets and 4 screws if memory serves. Good luck, pm me with any further questions- just make sure you pry from the left witha hook so you don't scratch the dash or jack up the trim panel. [/QUOTE]
