If you want to remove your radio and allow it to be used in another car, you must take the car to the dealer (with the radio still in it!) and have the dealer "divorce" the radio from the car, using the Tech 2 tool. Then you can take the radio out, and put it in another car, but it will need to then be "married" to that car before it will work.
Your radio is protestant - it can be married and divorced as many times as it wants, but only married to one at a time. CD Changers are also protestant - they must be married to your car in the same way the radio is.
Your car is mormon - it can be married to many radios at once. If you decide to just take the current radio out and toss it, you don't need to divorce it before you marry a new one to your car. But, your car is picky - it will only marry protestants - again, you can't marry a car to a radio which is already married to another car.
It's unfortunate that cars are mormon, because it means there are a great many people out there who have replaced a radio or CD changer, and then sold the old one without divorcing it. There's no way to annull that marriage later (remember - they're not Catholic), so once the radio is removed, the only way to divorce it is to take the radio and its spouse together back to the dealership for a proper ceremony. So be careful when buying a used radio or cd changer.
Hope this helps.
