Get some nail files from walmart or target or wherever.. you only need 2 for sure, but 4 may be easier. stick them in the little holes and angle them outwards (push the part you can hold outwards, away from the deck, thus moving the part stuck in the hole towards the center). Do that for both top and bottom on a side while pulling on the tape hole. you should be able to pull it out just enough that the clasps won't pop back into place.

repeat for the other side, may have to repeat again if they click back in...or get some help from a friend to hold one side while you do the other. once all 4 get released, it just slides right out. good luck. like i said, much more detail in the archive, and the tech section.

Aren't they only like $4? Cheaper & easier just to get the keys.

Jam a crowbar into the tape hole and pry it out.

you take it out once and never put it back in again. Guess why stereo repair places call it Matsu****a. Because it is. Nail files actually work better than the radio removal tools.
