I'm currently trying to fit a new radio into the car but i'm having trouble getting the old one out. i've tried looking for the manual but haven't had any success unless i want to buy it and i don't want to. any ideas would be greatly appreciated

If the radio is similar to that in later fiestas, there should be four holes - two on each side. You stick a pair of U-shaped bits of metal in, push them to the side a bit and pull the whole lot out. You can get these from a motor factors for about €2.

I know its only six quid, but before you head over to halfords, try cutting up a coat hanger into 2 U shaped pieces, or get some very large nails and a pliers. That did the trick for me.
