Default 6CD Changer Removal

I have an '00 F150 Lariat SC w/the 6cd changer in the console. I want to remove it. How does it come out? I can't seem to find any mounting screws unlike my expeditions.

I've seen some people leave the trim on, but I would take off the trim around it, theres 4 clips for that-use something to get a grip on it (slide a flathead or something like that under it) and pop it off, if u have 4x4 switch that and air speed will be plugged to that so dont pull it too far away. I left these plugged in when i removed mine but rested the trim on my knees so that it wasn't hanging by these plugs. After that you need the tools (looks like U's with a little thing at the end) put each end in one of the 4 small holes on the left2 and right2 should go about an inch and feel it lock into place, push the tools to the outside and that will release it-then all you gotta do is pull it straight out. There's gonna be 2 wire plugs to undo and one wire to pull(this took a little force for mine) and then its all out and undone. That should be it.

Thanks but I'm talking about the 6cd changer in the console not the dash.

They make set of metal looking to take then out, but you can also use 4 small finishing nails to do the trick. It just pulls the metal clips on the inside back to release the cd player.

Thanks but I got it out. It was the changer in the console I was removing not the HU in the dash. I finally figured out how to get the trim off so I could get to the screws.
