Allen keys to remove the screws in each corner.
DIN removal keys - push in the holes and then you can remove it. Some people use coat hangers instead.

I want to remove the standard tape player (car 300) in my corsa b.
I have removed the 4 screws from each corner but do not know how to remove it, i have tried screw drivers each side, coathangers and pushing it from behind but still no luck.
Is there any one that knows how to remove them???

I managed to remove the player and found a casing where i removed a bolt right at the back.
the thing is where the radio antener and the power supply for the cd players comes through it is blocking the cd player so it wont fit in.
do i remove everything,i dont no how.

I just did it myself - the black connector at the back on the left has three clips, press them in, then push the connector backwards. For the antenna socket, it has two clips, I got it out by first pressing the top one, pushing the socket so the top clip was free, then did the same for the second. It's fiddly, but finally got the old cage out now!

its a bit of a bugger to fit back in, you have to move all the wires out of the way, best thing to do is remove the ash tray and/or the glove box. you mite even have to bend the metal braket backa bit if it still wont fit, as its a very tight squeese. the airel cable is also very short
