Removing the OEM Radio?

Just received the VIN # for my 07 RAV4 from the dealer, my vehicle will be in in about 7 days. Vehicle is equipped with the stock radio w/ 6 CD changer. I plan to immediately change the radio and I'm now trying to find out how the radio can be removed. I don't see any visible screws or clips. Can anyone explain how?

At the sides of the radio you should be able to pop out the "triangle" pieces and you should see the 4 10mm blts to remove the radio.

I just did mine, the entire job took me 1 hour, including adding Sirius Satellite Radio. The removal of the two trangular panels adjacent to the radio is easy, but use caution not to scratch the panels.

Here's a step by step procedure!
