I cant recall if they ISO adapters or not, but heres what you need to do:-

Remove the plastic section at the base of the gear shift. (Just pulling it up is enough)
Remove the ash try. (It should just slide out)
I think you may have to remove the vents at this point to. (Been awhile since I last did this job on an EGI) They should just pull out, but be gentle as ther are very brittle.
Unscrew the screws that have now been revealed.
The whole center surround should be free to come forwards, bringing the head unit etc with it.  From this point on you should be able to manage!

:wave

Any probs PM me.
