2000- 02 Saturn S -series Radio Removal
){kind=link}
Can someone please tell me how to disable the airbag ?
How many PINS does that factory wiring harness..?
My radio I am installing has a 16 PIN wiring harness connector..
It's a lot of work taking off all that trim I'd liked to know exactly what I am going to get into
Thanks for this video, man! Helped me get my dash apart, with ease. Now I can replace my temperature controls.
I have a Saturn S series that's going to pick n pull…it has a really nice aftermarket stereo in it. Would I remove it the same way? Don't want to give it to pick n pull, want to put it in a truck.
5:21: How many of You answered…"Whoop, There It Is ?!"
This was very helpful thank you so much.
I'd rather buy another car than go to the trouble of putting in a new media player. Sheesh.
We are donating our Saturn to charity and wanted to put the original radio back in. Thank you for this video as it made the process take less than 10 minutes!
Probably the cheapest looking car radio ever made.
Nice job but looks like bit extra work just to get the bezel off. What I see and cut time in half.
Loosen dash pad and pop off the bezel that's it, you don't need to remove side vent or remove steering column the radio bezel lifts up from behind it slide it in from radio side then push down snap in place.
Skip the dashboard removal. Unnessisary step. One thing that helps is remove the top cap for the steering wheel. This allows for easy removal of hvac cluster.
So. Much. TRIM! @_@
Thanks to you I can swap out my recently acquired SW2. What irks me is … 1960s we had 8-track. 1970s introduced the tape deck. Late 80s and all 90s rocked the CD unit. Saturn goes back to the 50s and grants us only FM radio. -_-
Peter Griffin is that you?
Helped me a lot! Thanks!
Did the 2001 SC2 have a factory amplifier somewhere in the car that I don't know about thanks for your time look forward to hearing an answer ASAP my car is been in shambles for almost 2 months now
Its ridiculous. Its just a radio and you need a PhD to get into it.
What if the wire colors from my saturn don't all match up with my new stereo?
Newer s series are so extra. My 93 sc2 just had the plastic trim around the radio and ac controls that popped right off and that was it
Holy fuck just tear the whole fucking car apart
All that just to get the fucking radio out? Really?
just a comment. i was unable to remove the two screws from the steering wheel shroud. just would not back out. anyway, i was still able to remove the bezel with the steering wheel in the lowest position.
Thank you very useful!
thank you, glad I watched……way more involved than I suspected
Love your trim removal tool is that snap on? Lol
