96Acura 3.5RL / Need Help Remove InDash Cassette Player

Hi,

I bought a used 1996 Acura 3.5RL. It has original Acura Audio Cassette Player built in. I want to put a new CD/MP3 player, but need some help.
1.) How do I go about removing the old deck?
2.) It looks like I'm going to need a new face plate for the dash.
Anyone know where I can a kit for it?

Thanks....

Does anyone know how to remove the face plate?
It looks like no one makes a kit for this type of car, so I'm going to try and fabricate it myself, but do need help removing the face plate.

Anyone has an idea?

Thanks...

Thanks Doncarlos!
The instructions look good.
At least it will give me a starting point.
I will try this weekend and will let you know how it goes.

Thanks again for sharing!
