How do you take of the dash paneling to install a new aftermarket cd player?

some radio installation kits come with extension wiring for this purpose depending on the model of car..if it is an aftermarket cd player check with the store where puchased for items needed..good luck..

Look for inst. lites fuse and clean the connectors at the fuse panel. The stereo speakers might have come loose from a poor wiring job. Look under the dash below the radio. Sometimes the dash light switch gets worn and doesn't work until you mess with it a little.

any aftermarket will work just rewire the whole thing where the speakers are hooked to both the stereo and the cd player.. maybe a nice switch could be used on the dash to enable this..

I would return to the store where you bought the CD player, they should have an adapter to integrate your CD changer.

Most cd players are in the main dash panel. If you do not have a cd slot, you likely don't have a cd player. These vans usually don't come with them and you have to install an aftermarket cd player.
If you have a cd disc changer, it is likely in the very rear of the vehicle.

hi, your best bet is to go to a stereo sales place like best buy and get an install kit specifically for your car, that way there is no cutting wires, everything will just plug right in and they sell kits that will allow you to install aftermarket units directly into the dash without cutting anything. Very professional.

does the radio have cd changer controlls? if so you may find the wires in the trunk if not you will have to buy a harness from ford and make sure the cd changer will work with the stock radio. Call the local ford dealer parts dep but make sure you have the vin number from the car with that they can look up the car and tell you what options where installed from the factory and can order the correct cable

first check the illumation fuse which to toyota its the panel fuse, check if it is blown. if not take the aftermarket wire harness u wired in with the radio harness and disconnect the orange wire (illumation wire) and see if u have lights again. sometimes the aftermarket orange wire won't work with toyota vehicles. good luck

The only way to get this is from a Salvaged Truck. I Still have my cd Player in My 95' Silverado because I could not find one Either. I went ahead and Installed the Aftermarket System and just unhooked it.

Under the steering wheel by your feet, remove the 2 screws that hold the panel up. Carefully remove that, then just take your hands and start popping the dash off, but be CAREFUL!
