Hi, I hope this is correct forum. Have got radio surround panel off, and removed 2 screws from front of radio mount, but it still seems firmly locked in place. Are there any secret places where other screws lurk??? All help appreciated, Seasons greets to all, Wayne

If it's the original radio and maybe some aftermarkets are the same there may be a bolt dead centre at the back of the radio. Have a look there.

Original radio has a security screw in the underside of it, to make it hard to steal. Absolute pain in the a** to remove. Be really patient. Or wobble the unit a lot to break the tab it's screwed into.
