Re: Dash on GX prado.

The first thing to do is remove the panel below the stereo that has the aircon controls. Simply grasp it between thumb and forefinger on each side (e.g. above and below the knob at each end) and gently pull it out. I just let it hang down by the wires. The silver panels that run up either side of the stereo and the aircon vents is all one piece. I remove this I put my thumb inside at the bottom on each side, ie. below the hazard light switch, put my fingers on the stereo and it will pop out. This one takes a bit more force than the AC panel. There is one wire that goes to the hazard light switch so just unplug this when you have the panel out.

Once you have done this there are four bolts that hold the stereo in, they take a 10mm socket. Just undo these and the stereo will pull straight out.
