Easiest Way to get to the Rear Screw on the Stereo Head Unit
Ok so this might fit under OEM also but the head unit that is in it already is not a stock unit so I put it here.
Its a 95 Grand Cherokee Laredo and im trying to pull out the head unit since it is broke and missing the front. Is there any way to get to the rear mounting screw (Anti-Theft screw or whatever) that does not involve tearing the whole dash out?
I pretty much was following this video on how to change it but the video and everything else i found did not talk about the rear screw.

I figured it out.
For anyone else with this issue just simply:
Remove the 2 screws above the stereo (which need to come out anyways if you are changing it out), the 3 screws above the speedometer, and the 4 screws at back on the top part of the dash (will need to remove the long vent cover). after that just pop the dash up and it will give access to all that you need.
In my case there was a flat metal strip that they had screwed into the back of the head unit and into the dash itself...
