I'm trying to get the panel off near the ashtray. All the clips seem to have come off. But down near the bottem it has heaps of resistance (near ashtray and ciggie lighter..i don't want to bust it. Cant see any more screws etc. Anybody else had this?
Thnaks

take out the ashtray, and the 2 screws that hold the ashtray mounting. Behind there there is a plug which has the wiring for the ciggie lighter and the light for the ashtray - obviously you need to unplug this too.
there will be a bit of resistance since this big L shaped panel is held in by a bunch of clips, getting a flathead screwwie in behind the panel to pop it off helps a bit.

Is the Negative the white stipped wire on each of the speaker wires on the toyota wiring harness?

Thanks Witzl
Got the deck in and everything went well...except one thing. GOt the friggin power and accessories supply mixed up. Quickly checked the Sony instructions for the new deck, checked it with just temporary (leads all taped), seemed fine (Deck must have temporary memory - for like 1 minute where it holds presets). So I soldered up, put all back together then realised when it doesn't hold presets .
Red was "switched power supply" (accessories) and yellow was "continuous". Out of the 3 cars I've put decks in this one was the hardest removing heaps of trim etc.. (thanks Witzl for the article on deck install though, was gold) and make such a DUMB mistake .
You don't mind playing around with your own car, but it's my gf's...had her waiting and helping - took bloody ages.
Anyway, it's good for now - will rectify within the next month sometime , should be quick now I know how it comes apart and goes together.
Lost half of those silly little clips though, but didn't break anything..could be worse I guess
