General How to remove the integrated stereo in my brava?
There's two slots on either side of the stereo so you may be able to slot something in and remove it. Fiat dealers have the right tool to do that but will no doubt charge huge amounts of labour.

Hiya,
When I bought my Bravo, there were no removal keys 4 the hi-fi so I popped back 2 the dealer and the salesman popped out 2 the Service Dept, grabbed a set of tools and whipped the head unit out 4 me, no charge. It takes about 10 seconds 2 do. I'm sure if u pop in2 ur nearest dealer, they'll do the same. And if they have the nerve 2 charge u, then bitchslap 'em upside da head !! LOL
I did read on the Bravo Forum page that it can b done without the tools, but i don't recall how. Go 2 http://fiatbravo.net/forum and have a look thru'.
Hope this helps,
Rob.

My Fiat dealer told me they couldn't do it and the only way they could help was to order the special Fiat stereo keys from Fiat.
Problem being that the keys were on back order and expected delivery time was 6-weeks!!!
Gave up at parts/service desk, walked round the back, grabbed a mechanic, who said, "yeah we've got the keys, wheres the car?".
He had it out in under 2 mins.
Another great example of Fiats excellent customer service!

Believe it or not its quite easy even without the correct tools, just take two feeler gauges slip 'em in either side, fiddle like mad then pull the radio out by putting your fingers in the cassette slot! It’s all in the haynes book.
if ya got no feeler gauges use ur key things u get with ur HU
