Default factory radio

Need advice for removing the faceplate on the facory radio. I would like to check the antennae connection, It seems to improve when I hit a bump then go away at the next bump. Any advice is appreciated.

I had mine out at one point. That wad back in high school. If I remember correctly, on my car (it may be different), there were tabs that lock the sides in. I had to work a screw driver in the side to get the tabs to release. I had to be pretty careful. Once I had it out, I may have found that there was an easier way, but that's all I remember.

What year/model ? Wagons have antenna booster amp which can get squirrelly

They all had spring tabs on the side, some are easier than others,

I don't remember messing with anything on top so I don't think they catch on a lip. I think that they just hold it in tight. The radio kinda sits in it's own little plastic box.
