2003 SLK CD Player Removal
Discussion
Now then everyone, my Mum's got a 2003 SLK230 and my Dad bought her a new CD Player for Christmas (the standard one doesn't play MP3 CDs and the sound's not very good on it).
The problem is; I told them I'd fit it and it should be a doddle, I just need to work out how to remove the current one, I'd accept that people might not want to explain how to do it on a public forum, so if you're happier sending me a PM that'd be great, my old man doesn't want to have to fork out the cost of the CD Player again to AudioIsland or Halfrauds to have it fitted.
The current CD Player she has is the Audio 10 CD, and I've taken a couple of pictures for reference. I tried undoing two screws either side of the cup holders (at the top), but this didn't seem to do anything and there are two holes behind the vents where I think there should probably be screws, so I'm a bit stuck...
I'd be grateful for any advice anyone could give me on getting the standard CD Player out please,
Cheers,
AL

There are two slots by the knobs.
Merc make a slide in tool to remove it. ( IIR, I googled them and then made my own. )
Either do that, buy them or offer a drink to the local Merc man.
