The original car stereo has brought you lots of fun in the past. However, you may find that it cannot fulfill your needs any more. The old head unit may only support radio and CD function. But, a new touch screen GPS DVD player can do more than that. If you are considering upgrading your Jeep Wrangler radio to a new multifunction stereo, you can purchase a new unit on the Internet and install it in your car yourself or in a car stereo upgrade center. If you install it yourself, make sure you know the upgrade steps clearly and can do it well.

 

Before the upgrade, please disconnect the negative cable on the vehicle battery to ensure security. Please prepare tools for the upgrade, too.

 

Here are replacement steps for a Jeep Wrangler radio from 2003 to 2006 for your reference.

 

  1. Use a lever to pry the trim panel as the picture 1 shows. This panel is long. So, you should pry it from the edge to the middle. Then, take it off the dashboard.

  4. Remove the radio. There are four screws which are holding the radio. Remove them and put them away. If you find that it’s difficult to take the radio out of the dash, you can refer to picture 5 and picture 6. First, remove the glove box. Then, remove the screws at the top of the dashboard. These are for easy reaching the wires at the back of the radio. You can disconnect some wires so that the radio can be easy taken out of the dash. At last, disconnect all the wires at the back of the radio and put it aside.
