So im reading that removing the stock monsoon stereo (01 v6 camaro) is just as simple as pulling the face plate off then pulling out the HU. So far i can only get the head unit out about an inch or so...and i can hardly reach the wires in the back...i can touch them with my fingertips but as for disconnecting them i havent the slightest clue and i dont really want to force it....
Has anyone done this????

 

your doing it right. whats with these f-ing cars and tight spaces? try doing the spark plugs lol.

 

How about 100 yards distance and a LAW?

Check out a Chilton/Haynes, go to the heater core section maybe. That should tell you where to start around the stereo area.
