2000 Hilux radio
Die Panasonic radio waarmee my Hilux uitgekom uit die fabriek se cd speler werk nie meer nie en ek wil hom graag regmaak of 'n ander een insit. Die probleem is net ek kry hom nie uitgehaal nie. Ander radios het gewoonlik 2 hakies wat jy met 2 plaatjies druk dan trek hy net uit. Enige iemand dalk raad hoe om hom uit te haal??

Re: 2000 Hilux radio
Gerrit, we did this to my radio just last week.... but I wasn't paying attention!
Remove the face plate and then there are three (or four?) little black screws you must remove as well before removing the panel. Then at the TOP of the radio, on the right hand side IIRC, you have to insert a flat radio removal thingie to push down on a spring catch. It is not the usual side mount spring clip.
Fitting a new radio has its problems too, because the new radio has its springie things on the left & right side, unlike the Panasonic that has it top & bottom. But we used a short piece from a thick cable tie to "jam" the radio in. The new radio works like a charm!

Re: 2000 Hilux radio
Dankie baie, gaan more hom probeer uithaal! Selfs die manne by die radio plekke kon hom nie uit kry nie, paneelkissie uitgehaal, goeters orals ingedruk maar hy sit. Wil ook dalk maar nuwe een insit want die oue se display is ook nie meer lekker nie.

As ek reg onthou is daar 'n skroef agter die asbakkie, wat, as jy hom nie uithaal nie, kan jy maar vergeet om die "surround" van die radio af te kry. F_D is reg omtrent die 4 skroewe. Jy gaan 'n plan moet maak om die "aftermarket" radio daar te laat pas - ek het 2 l-vormige brackets gemaak, aan die radio vasgeskroef en die ooreenstemmende gate geboor in die voorkante van die l-vormige brackets, sodat al 4 skroewe kon teruggaan - dit maak die radio lekker stewig sit. Soveel so dat geen grondpad al my Sony laat skip het met cds of mp3 nie!
Roep as jy vasbrand, dan sal ek gaan sekermaak vir jou.

It sounds worse than it is. I believe the screw behind the ashtray is just there to prevent the panel from falling off, or for quick removal by affirmative shoppers.
I believe that the brakets can also be bought ready made, as most other Japanese bakkies use a similar setup.
Attached is a cut-out from the Sony head unit install documents to give you an idea of what needs to happen (as far as brackets are concerned).

Re: 2000 Hilux radio
Dankie Theunis, wou vandag na radio kyk maar het nie tyd gekry nie. Sal maar Saterdag kyk, wil net eers die eerste 10 minute van die Bokke kyk, as hulle speel soos verlede Saterdag gaan ek sommer lekker vroeg klaarkry met die radio. Sal jou op hoogte hou of ek reg gekom het of nie

Re: 2000 Hilux radio
Gerrit, I actually remembered to look at the Panasonic radio this morning, which is still lying here at work. Exactly as I said - remove face plate, look at top right corner. There is a small spring loaded latch there/ Depress it with a screw driver and Whalla! Your radio will slide out of the receptacle. It's something like a two-second job. You will enjoy this so much that you will re-insert it and drive round to the radio place and educate them....

Re: 2000 Hilux radio
Dankie Theunis en oom Eric! Het vanmiddag gou weer probeer en het hom uit gekry! Dit is eintlik net 'n 2 minute joppie as jy weet wat om te doen. Sal nou maar kyk of ek die oue regmaak of dalk nuwe een insit. Naweek se probleem.....

Baie bly jy het reggekom ! As ek jy is gooi die Panasonic ver WEG! Die goed is regtig goedkoper om te vervang! Jy kan 'n baie goeie Sony byvoorbeeld vir minder as een duisend rand kry, selfs met afstandbeheer en tonne meer funksies as wat Toyota SA se Panasonic gehad het! Dan is daar ook 'n waarborg op die nuwe radio en jy sal ure se plesier daaruit he!
Ek het daai paadtjie geloop en is nie 'n sekonde spyt nie! Ook is die Sony se cd speler MP3 aanpasbaar en het in sy hele bestaan NOG NOOIT geskip nie! Nie eens op slegte grondpad nie!
Geniet dit!
P.S. hou het in gedagte dat as jy iets anders as die Panasonic insit gaan die "raampie" waarin die Panasonic pas ietwat anders wees m.a.w. die hakkies wat hom vashou mag dalk op 'n ander plek sit, daarom het ek voorgestel dat jy die hele ding uithaal (as jy hom gaan vervang). Die nuwe radio kom ook met 'n raampie wat vir hom gemaak is, en dis hier waar daai "side brackets" ter sprake kom.
Skree as jy vasbrand! ek sal myne uitmekaarhaal en fotos aanstuur as dit sal help! :)
