C5 Radio Removal

Post by KeithC5 »

I have a 2005 55reg 1,6Hdi VTR Citroen C5. I have a PARROT bluetooth hands free kit which simply plugs into the back of the car stereo by removing the ISO plug, plugging this into the PARROT adaptor and then plugging the other PARROT ISO plug back into the radio. I have 2 questions:-

1 Can you give me details how to remove the Stereo

2 Does anyone know if this will cause problems with the whole C5 computerised system?

I would also like to know if I can fit a SONY CD changer to the cage and wiring under the driver's seat?

Thanks for any help :?:

There are two release holes, one on either side. No?

Probably. You'll have to try it and see.

if its a mk2 you need a thin bladed T-10 screwdriver in the 2 holes at either side, the screws are recessed in the holes.
Also if its a mk2 its not an ISO plug its a quadlock so it wont plug straight in, you'll need a SOT adaptor.
It wont cause any problems but theres no ignition live at the radio so you'll need to get one from somewhere else like the fag lighter.
