Hi, new to the site. I've been looking high and low for how to remove the stock radio in my '97 Protege, but haven't had much luck. I've got the trim off from around the radio and used a radio removal tool in the little holes on the sides, but it seems theres a 'security bolt' or something holding it in from behind and I don't know how to get to it without breaking anything. Any help would be much appreciated!

get 4 allen keys, they shoudl be a tinny bit smaller than the holes at each corner of the radio.
next, insert each allen key in each whole. when you insert the allen keys, try to feel for some tension, this is what stops the radio from comming out. try inserting them at different angles to find the right spot.
then pullthe allenkeys towards you and in opposite directions untill you feel the sides unlock or click.
usually, one of the sides becomes loose at this point, you need to find the right position for the allen keys on the side that isnt loose inorder to pull both sides towards you at the same time.
keep wiggling it and itll come out. and the allen keys aonly need to be inserted about 1 inch.Mazda Protege 1998 LX 1.8 AT.
