how old is the radio?, if it has 2 knobs i.e. non digital, remove the knobs and slacken the nuts

Taken the nuts off but it doesn't seem to have made any difference :S

Assuming it is an old one

Once nuts are off you should be able to work the front panel off the radio (should have the volume/tuning marking for the Knobs and the radio scale)and then the support plate behind will be loose and able to work it out, we could really do with a pic but seen your post count, need 15 before you can post up a pic;)

After taking off the two nuts, there should be a rectangular fascia plate to remove..

Behind this will be the radio held in by two sprung steel clips..

Ease these (and the attached radio) out...:)
