i removed mystock stereo with the u shaped wires i made. then i went to pull out the stereo its self and it wont budge. Are there screws i need to worry bout, or should i just pull and rip the fu**er out?

http://www.mx-3.com/tech/audsys/<p>Jeff gave a pretty good walkthrough on how to do it. It should help you with about any questions you have. You can also try once you push the hangers in, reach your hand around and push from behind to get a lil more leverage.

I had problems pulling mine too. The left side clamp pushed out instead of in. I ended up twisting the stereo around as much as possible so I could get to the right side clamp and then removed the screws holding it on. Removing that allowed a bit more space so I was able to get a screw driver in and bend the left side clamp back into position then pull the whole thing out. Just use a steady hand on things and don't completely force the issue...so that you don't crack your dash.

When I took mine out all I did was cut a coat hanger into four pieces, and pushed them into each slot and it pops out... I don't see where your having problems?
