I believe it's the same as the CL, check the FAQ.

Look at the DIY/FAQ thread and under the CL section look for "Head Unit and Center Console Removal"

I can tell you..

Get a flathead screwdriver and a phillips

Use the flathead with a piece of thin cloth over it, to pry the fake plastic wood on the dash. It is held on with plastic clips. I usually start at the far right above the glovebox. Take that all off, this will also include the climate control unit. It has two wiring harnesses, you have to pinch the harnesses on the top and bottom for them to come out.

Now for the radio itself, you'll see 4 phillips screws exposed. Unscrew them. There will be a bracket that attaches itself to the radio. Undo that too. There should be two harnesses for the radio and the antenna.

If you have any other questions ask away.
