is it a single or dual din unit? you have to push the removal tool/wire/whatever you're using in a long way til it moves it

The reason the console wont come out is that the radio hides two screws that you need to get to. Sad to say, the radio has to come out first.

Check here for a how to dohttp://www.fordforums.com.au/vbporta...article&id=231
