GX60 Removal

I have a GX60 mounted in my Dakota. I have loosed the locking screw and the unit pushes forward from the panel about 1/4 inch. I can move it slightly side to side but it will not slide out of the panel. Does anyone have an idea what may be causing it to bind or suggestions on how to get it to pull out?

  • It's possible the rack has incorrect screws that are binding the radio, I've seen that in the past. If the lock tab is completely clear of the rack, sometimes you can see that with a good flashlight and looking below the unit, you can just pull harder than you think you should. It will pop out, and again, if the lock is clear, no damage will occur. Just pull straight out to ensure no damage to the pins.
