Hi all. I need to pull the Pioneer Model AVH-175DVD from my VX. Would it come out with a tool like a single DIN Pioneer or do I need to pull the car apart to get it out?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the tools the HU came with? 2 little metal paddles stick em in, push and unit should pop out enough for you to pull by hand.

No, unit was in the car when I bought it. I have a set of removal tools for many brands and have two paddles marked Pioneer that work fine on single DIN but don't seem to fit anywhere on the double DIN unit.

Would anyone have a picture/photo of the tool for removing Pioneer Double Din head units?
