I bought a car, the tape deck is a faceoff, the face is missing, and i want to take it out, now it needs special pins for it, where can i get them?

I dunno what kinda headunit sadly, thinking a sony, and it's a subaru justy, if that makes a difference to the pins, but would my local scooby garage do it, or best off in halfords? I can't go another day without beats yo!

Halfords should be able to remove it for you, they offer a fitting service which means removing your old one first.

It may cost you though.

Yeh its a different type, you just slot them down the side, could probably use tin can and just cut out some slats, that'll do same job.

take it to your local halfords, get some pics up if you can, if might be a bolt in unit where you normally take of some trim to get to the bolts.

if its 2 slots down the side, tools are about £5 from your local halfords or ask them to take it out for that price using there own tools
