you have to do the same thing unless you have the removal tools that just slide the unit out but your gonna have to take the dash off again to rewire.

no way, slide the deck out of the cage, pull the harness out enough till you can unclip it, squash the cage down enough so you can pull it through the opening. Dont even need a drill or anything.
