Try genuine Vx removal keys, they are a slightly better shape for gripping the radio

Halfords ones tend to pull out every time pressure is applied.

Be carefull reattatching that facia, it can be permanently damaged if care is not taken to align the pins on the circuit

Hellfrauds only sell the really crappy autoleads removal keys.  Try better quality ones, as Dave DND suggests.

Even with the best keys, its still awkward, as the connectors on the back really do hold on to it, plus its a very snug fit in the cage
