The audio from my new satellite radio module is not working because the ipod adapters audio is plugged into those inputs. I have tried everything to remove the pins from the connector behind the radio but nothing works. I only need to remove 3 wires and replace them with the ones from the satellite harness. Is there anyone in LA who has the micro (1.5mm) terminal release de-pinning tool I could borrow for 10 min??? I will come to you whenever it is convenient. I am desperate as the dealer wants $180 for the 5 minutes it will take them to fix it.

 

I have seen the terminal kits sold at places like Napa or other well equiped parts houses. I'm not saying every one has them, but I was surprised to see the one I did. And it was reasonably priced too. So check your parts stores to see if they have them or can get them. Maybe K-D tools or some like company has made them now. You don't have to buy the dealer kit to get those tools. I'll bet ebay has pictures of them as well to give you an idea of what the aftermarket can get.

 

I've seen the kits for about $70 but I only need one tool for 30min and they don't sell them separately. Also I think the cheap kit tools are probably not that great and the good single tool for this is around $100. If I did this often I would just buy the tool but this is just a one time use to get my satellite radio working.
