How do I remove aftermarket radio??

One of the previous owners installed using wire caps like in the pic below. Seemed legit enough, but I wasn't looking closely; there could have been a couple hidden over-stripped wires. The antenna wire was loose but who's to say it didn't pop out when I pulled the unit out from the dash...

Thanks all - definitely a new believer in Craigslist... It has an aftermarket head unit, but bone stock otherwise. It has the stock shocks/struts, that's for sure.

Thank you! Pics posted here: http://www.shoforum.com/index.php?threads/1992-cream-puff.130454/ Thanks for the help. I'll be checking out Wal Mart on the way home; if that doesn't work I'll definitely be ordering the removal tool from Amazon.

1992 Cream Puff

So I was looking for a beater to drive to work. A second beater actually, since if you're going to depend on a beater you'd better have two of them; especially with a 3-week-old baby in tow. After begrudgingly looking at 150k mile camry after camry on Craigslist, I stumbled upon this cream...

How do I remove aftermarket radio??

Simple question, but my simple mind couldn't manage to find a single detailed thread on this. I just bought a real cream puff Sunday, literally only two things wrong with the car: 1) Belt squeaks occasionally when the A/C is on max, and 2) the previous owner said he unhooked the battery...
