Your best bet is jut to leave it for now before you destroy everything and let fusco give you some advice when he comes on.

Lanni if u read this iv looked at ur tutorial several times and unortunatlythe most inportant parts of your tutorial are starred out were uv put what wire to hook the reds and white up to it says "Hook the red wire upto the ***** Wire" etc lol

To get out the HU, you need the Vauxhall lever arm things to pull out the HU. You see the four 'holes', two either side of the HU, there's two prongs go in there, and you can pull it out.

I doubt you'd be able to get into it via the glovebox, as there's a big gap/space between the back of the HU, and where the glovebox is.

hey am tryin to do the exact same thing just now

a kno the holes you mean on the front of the HU. is it a special tool you need to get it off?

 

[koro_guitarist]

I think so. I think you can use other things to get it off, but I used a special tool when I took mine out the other day to wire up my amp/sub, and footwells.

 

[del sxi]

cool, did you get it from vauxhall? a think ill try with a coathanger first :lol: does it just unclip or do you need to put,(excuse my wording), something in all 4 holes at the same time and pull it off?

Sorry mate not had time to finihs it off i will do it for you before you get back mate.

sorry it taken to long

 

[Callum]

Yeh you will probs need the lil tool as i think it clips to some pins at the bottom, Then when pulling you put a slight bit of power out over then it should pop out.

 

[del sxi]

where do you recon sells them n how much?

Nope, I got it from eBay. I'll have a look to see if I can find one on there for you. Any garage/ICE shop should have one though.

The way I done it was put something in all four holes, and then pull, and slightly lift it up, then you have to shimmy it out.

Simple stick your hand up behind the glovebox and push the bottom corner out, you can feel the connector plug so just push. if your hands too big use a wooden spoon!

 

[lanni]

good idea:doublethumbs:

 

[del sxi]

a just cut up a coat hanger with pliers, pushed a bit into each hole to pop the springs then pushed it out from behind the glovebox

 

[lanni]

ill have to try that instead of buying the keys.

That's a good idea!

I'd recommend some sort of other metal though, as coat hangars are a little bendy and soft, I feel.

some allen keys haha
