I went on a walk with the dogs and on a lark made an appointment to see this
VW. Once I saw it I couldn't resist the bargain. 105K miles, ex-Florida car,
$2500-

Mandatory Radio Content- how does one remove one of these DIN radios? Poke
something in all 4 holes at once? Picture attached......

You can buy these for a buck at any audio store - unless you want
audiophile-grade DIN removal tools. Then they are a lot more expensive.


I bet the audiophiles can hear the difference if the radio is installed
or removed using low-quality DIN tools.

..... audiophiles don't recognize "car stereo" as being a viable listening
source ... the interior of a motor vehicle can't be considered as
a "high-end" listening environment ... it is just too noisy, both the
electronic gear and the venue ....

I'm sure. It's a difficult life being an audiophile.

I made some with an old wire coat-hanger.. Cut two lengths,bend into a
U-shape,and bend,mebbe 1/4 inch of the ends,at a 90 deg angle..
Insert the wires into the holes (against the face of the radio) and
pivot them until they are poking out of the front..like a pair of
handles... jiggle and pull..it'll come out.

remember when 105,000 miles was considered the end of a car?

Now it still has another 100,000 left
