Factory Car Stereo Removal

Don't know if anybody has ever gone to this sight but it's pretty cool if your in a pinch and stuck on time.I had a 2001 Lexus IS-300 that I needed to pull the stereo out for repair tonight. Completely blanked on the pull. For $5 this sight nailed it. I'm making $100 on the repair so it was worth it. Check it out.There is no such thing as free installation!

Bob, is this the site you're referring to: http://www.carstereohelp.com/stereoremoval.htm or is it something else?My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

I think it's the same site. Have you used them before?There is no such thing as free installation!

amen spookie.

Wow... Dude, chill... BAD mojo in a comment like that. ANYBODY can need help once in a while. Bob happens to own a great little store, and he has awesome installers and fabricators... I've seen some of the cars that people in the San Luis Obispo area trust to Bob's shop. Hell, I trusted him with mine! Could you get the stock deck out of an IS300? If you've never removed one before, I doubt it... My brother works for Toyota, and he OWNS an IS300 (the same year), and the TOYOTA dealer had to order the manual from the Lexus dealer across the street to remove the stock stereo system... Would you be willing to break the VERY expensive plastic parts on an IS dash? Didn't think so. Think about what you're saying before you say it.It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

When I did my first IS, it was nothing a little common sense and brains couldn't solve, especially if you've done other Lexus cars before. I think it's rediculous that a Toyota dealership couldn't do the job...I think they need to refresh their staff and get some real professionals who have brains instead of people that can only work off manuals-anybody can do that.

David and Geep thanks for getting my back. I'm not even going to address the others because obviously they didn't read the entire post. Once you pass 28 years in the business and over 40,000 cars done you can get back to me.There is no such thing as free installation!

A very respected member of this forum, and someone with more experience installing than all of the people jumping on his case put together, getting crapped on for mentioning that in a pinch and pressed for time this site helped him out. I think you guys need to come back down to earth. No one, not the moderators, senior members...or even haemphyst knows everything. If you seem to think you do, this isn't the forum for you.

I feel strange. I have deja vu and amnesia at the same time.
