Radio removal

Anyone know how to get that radio assembly out?

I need to get to the back of it to hook up my XM Radio.

Need some guidance! I have the console apart and the two screws at the bottom of the polished black plastic out. Cant seem to find anymore screws or a way to get it out...

NM, There is a 10 mm bolt on the drivers side up under the dash that keeps it all locked in place.

you really have to reach up in there to get to it. Its really only finger tight, so you can just put a 10mm on an extender and twist without a rachet. Trying to get up there with extensions would be tough. Also have a magnet around in case you drop the bolt like I did

Did you go about taking the radio out by removing the ring around the shifter first? I can't seem to pop that sucker out! I gave it all I had, maybe I'm missing a certain tool?
