Having failed miserably to find the answer using Google can anyone tell me 
if I can remove the above head unit to get to the back of the radio to plug 
in an iPod lead (this one if it makes any difference
http://www.incarexpress.co.uk/view_product.php?partno=AFOIPOD005)?

Or do I need to buy the HU removal tools?

In days of old a bit of farting around with a couple of coat hangers would 
do the job .

Cheers
