A How-To Guide For Removing 05-07 Cobalt Radios

be advised I did not originally write this:


Check clips, this releases the entire right side of lower trim panel from dash.




Gently pry upper trim panel from dash releasing two clips.




Pull trim panel slightly from dash. Allow trim panel to hang in place from connectors and wires.




Gently pry top left edge of car stereo trim panel from dash releasing clip.




Gently pry top right edge of car stereo trim panel from dash releasing clip.




Work your way down right edge of panel releasing clips, then down left edge of panel releasing clips.




Pull top edge of trim panel down to allow entire panel to lay onto center console.




Remove two screws right side of car stereo.




Remove two screws left side of car stereo.




Pull car stereo from dash.




Remove antenna and release trigger on connector to disconnect.



The End

I just did this like a month ago.

Thanks to GM's easy to remove dash. haha

doesn't look hard

no not really just dont break a clip lol

if it can be broke, i will break it.lol

not expensive to replace or fix. but if u got to buy some sometimes the stealership takes awhile

I've done my stereo numerous times and have yet to break a clip.....even completely plastered I didnt know somebody even made this How-To.

nice write up. i kinda figured it out on my own...just starting pulling everything apart...lol. that blue special tool is really not needed

easy haha
