## Description

Radio removal tool for select 1998-2006 Volkswagen, Audi, Mercedes

Review: Works great! Follow my tips :) - Keys worked great. They are not sharp as some other reviews stated. Once they are inserted you have to wiggle the top set together and then the bottom set together. Especially if the radio has not been removed in a long time. If one happens to pop out before radio removal, pop it back in and when pulling outward ever so slightly pull sideways towards the prospective door (drivers for drivers side and passengers for passenger side key). This will help the key catch the internal clip. Once the radio is out don't just yank the keys out, you will probably break the clips. There is a release button at each clip to release each key.
Review: Simple and Effective - I have a 2007 Audi A4 with a Symphony stereo set and these keys worked perfectly. For double din radio models you will need two sets of keys (4 keys total). While some people might not like the added expense it was worth it to me. No hassle and no damage to the stereo unit. I would advise buyers to be careful when pulling on the keys to remove the radio. Some of the key edges are a bit sharp and I did get a small cut. No problems other than that! The product arrived in good shape and on time.
