I went a couple months where I was taking the radio out every other day (heater core,dash lights, and radio=bad).
I kept a couple pieces of U-shaped wire coat hanger in the car. The kicker is that if you push them in too far you will 'wedge' the radio in tighter than ever. Insert the wire until you feel a little resistance. You just need to release the simple sheet metal catches. Then grab inside the tape hole and wiggle(the radio). It should come out easy. The cage comes out by slightly bending the upper & lower lips away from the plastic dash. Simple. One word of advice. The base radios (not 900S or 900T) use a common ground for the speakers. This is important if you cut the connector off your dead base 8 valve radio to install a new radio. Prepare to re-wire the connector.
