Hi all, not sure if this is an appropriate question or not, but I'm looking for pictures or instructions on removing the dash to install an aftermarket radio in my truck. I imagine there are just clips that I "pull hard enough" will come out, but being a C3 with its "nice" interior, I want to be more careful. Any help is appreciated. I have installed many radios at home, everything from the battery back to the amps and subs, I just usually pull and pray on the head unit install, and again, I don't really want to just gung-ho it this time =]
thanks again!

Sorry for quick double post, but I also had an idea, I am putting in a Blaupunkt San Jose, and I know I will probably lose the steering wheel controls, but I was thinking, I work in computers and soldering isn't a problem for me, would it be possible to wire the wheel into the blaupunkt should I be able to figure out the circuit board on the San Jose and of course which wires are which coming off the steering wheel?
cheers
