Dude, thanks for this. I'd been futzing with that radio for an hour when I finally searched for a video. It's a little long, and that blaring noise is AWFUL, but you taught me the trick and best you showed why it worked, not just how to do it.

of the several different 'how to' vids I viewed, this one was the simplest and most helpful of all of them all, imho..and showing how the prong tool actuates the clips was especially helpful (at least for me, lol)..well done sir, thanks for sharing, happy trails 👍😊
@darthvadar27572 жыл бұрын
Thanks . Great video. When you showed the clips on the stereo, that was awesome. It let me see just how it was held in place.
@borscope6 жыл бұрын
Bless you, man. I fought with the right side clips using actual DIN tools, and it was locked up solid. I got frustrated driving around searching for replacement clips as I was planning to drill them out, and I stopped in a walmart, bought a hanger like this, and POP it came RIGHT OUT.

@onemanwreckincrew3 жыл бұрын
Working on my 1993 Ranger and have the same problem. Looks like the rectangular opening is not quite standard DIN size. Thanks Ford. Also ... the rear of the stock radio is held secure by a tongue and groove plastic slider affixed to the rear of the radio ... it engages sheet metal at the lower area of the opening. Crutchfield was clueless ... if one does not want his new aftermarket radio bouncing around ... then a way must be found to secure the old plastic piece to the new radio. ARGH.

Working on my 1993 Ranger now. Looks like the rectangular opening is not quite standard DIN size. Thanks Ford. This will have to be widened about at least a millimeter or two. Also ... the rear of the stock radio is held secure by a tongue and groove plastic slider affixed to the rear of the radio ... it engages sheet metal at the lower area of the opening. Crutchfield was clueless ... if one does not want his new aftermarket radio bouncing around ... then a way must be found to secure the old plastic piece to the new radio. ARGH.
