Title: Stereo fascia removal for carbon wrapping?
Post by: spwd on January 16, 2017, 04:06:35 pm

How do I get the fascia off the stereo to wrap it, I've seen someone had done it in an old thread but no details.

I think he wants to remove the front OFF the stereo so he can wrap it. I guess you'll have to remove the stereo and then try and figure out how it's clipped on, I'm guessing you'll have to remove the two knobs at least.

Yes Octo you're right, I know how to take the stereo out, but I want to take the fascia off the stereo to wrap it, guess I'll take it out and have a look :happy2:

Two big Buttons need to be pulled off and there should be screws holding the facia on and a few clips too.

Shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to remove the face.
