Vehicle Compatibility
Vehicle applications may include select older models equipped with compatible factory radios, such as:
- Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class
- Mercedes-Benz W140 S-Class
- Mercedes-Benz R129 SL-Class

Vehicle year and model alone do not guarantee compatibility. Factory radios were changed during production, and previous owners may have installed different head units.
Important Fitment Requirement
The radio must have:
- A standard single-DIN configuration
- One horizontal release slot near each lower corner
- Becker-style internal retaining clips
Check the front of the radio before ordering. The slot shape and location must match the product photographs.
Not Compatible With
These tools are not designed for:
- Radios secured behind dashboard trim with screws or bolts
- Units using round-pin removal holes
- Radios requiring U-shaped wire tools
- Most modern touchscreen systems
- Mercedes-Benz COMAND 2.5
- Many Mercedes-Benz COMAND 2.0 installations
- Double-DIN radios requiring four keys unless two sets are purchased
- Aftermarket radios using manufacturer-specific keys
Some radio names were used across multiple generations, so confirm the physical removal slots rather than relying only on the radio name.
How to Use
- Turn off the ignition and radio.
- Locate the two horizontal slots near the lower corners of the radio.
- Insert one removal key into each slot in the correct orientation.
- Push both keys in evenly until the retaining clips release.
- Pull both rings outward evenly to slide the radio from the dashboard.
- Support the radio before disconnecting any wiring.
- Release the side retaining clips before removing the keys from the radio.
Do not force the tools. If they do not engage, remove them and confirm their orientation and compatibility.
Important Installation Note
Obtain the radio security code before disconnecting the vehicle battery or unplugging the radio. Some factory radios enter an anti-theft lock mode when power is removed and require the original code before they will operate again.
