Radio Removal Tool

hisa · 06-30-2009, 01:35 AM

I am trying to ditermine which tool is correct for my car radio. There seems to be two types suggested on the new. One of which is for VW cars. I found a site selling these mentioning that they are not for my car radio.

I am using "symphony car radio with cassette player" - AAO 3000 002A.
Can anyone help?

Try the FACOM DX.25 set which includes the Skoda specific rather than VW tool (which is also included). In addition they include the keys for later CD changers and anumber of other types all for around £20. Good luck. If you change the radio for a non VAG unit beware the issue to do with the VW diagnostic equipment which can be destroyed by scanning a car with a replacement non VAG radio. To guard against this many dealers will not scan a car with such a radio......
