Hi, is there an online site where I can get step by step (like the old
motors manuals of the bygone era) where I can remove the radio on a 2002
Hyundai XG350. Want to replace the unit with a good aftermarket Sony. Info
is good on installation with the new radio but need the wiring diagraghm of
the existing hyundai speaker and power wiring and what and how to remove
the old radio.

Thanks in advance

Most or all of the information you seek will be available at www.hmaservice..com.
You'll need to register for an account there, but it's free.
Replacement information is in the "Shop" (for shop manual) section,
and wiring information is in the "ETM" (for electrical troubleshooting
manual) section.

If memory serves, the lower center dash trim just snaps out. Maybe 2
screws behind the ash tray. Then simply four or six screws holding
the radio in place.

Quick Google search came up with this info. Can't vouch for it.

The first car radio I had used only two wires!. !2 volts and speaker. From
memory an earsplitting 800 milliwatts.

Those were good times my friend. Very good times indeed. . Gosh, I even
remember when a guy could put a generator or an alternator on a car after
work in the evening, take the old parts back to the parts store to get your
deposit back, and still not be late for supper.

Far cry from now isn't it? All the jobs mentioned above plus a lot more
means pulling the engine for minor repairs. I even like the humps in the
inside of cars where the purpose was to make room for the driveshaft and
transmission. Of all the improvements made over the years, the only ones I
can see is that engines do last longer, brake repairs are easier than where
master cylinders were located under the "floorboard" (although front
wheeled drived ones are a pain in the keester.) gosh, I even liked being
able to take loose the front u-joint, drop the driveshaft and take out the
tranny for a quick noontime trip to a transmission shop where second gear
could be replaced, picked up after work, and re-installed before dark in
the evening. Those days are gone as well as our youthful memories.

Thanks for making me remember.....

Plus,s and minuses eh. The radio first went into my VW and was impossible to
hear because of general noise then into a BMC Mini and still couldn,t hear
it because of induction roar from twin SU,s immediately in front of
bulkhead.. But both cars had so much more charisma than modern things
though. You actually had to know how to drive. No doubt about the engines,
Dad used to decoke the heads every 20,000 miles and the Mini had to be
rebored/rings/gearbox every 40,000 miles.

Bought a Sony that does MP3 usb memory sticks, MP3 players, at Circuit
City for about half what it used to be before bankruptcy sale, a Sony
wiring harness to hyundai harness, direct plug in. Dash kit to replace
the old Hyundai radio, and even a removable head. Was abl;e to use the
amplified Hyundai speakers and the radio amp just loafs along, just barely
cranked open. Great sound. The antenna in the windshield works well too
pulling in the AM station coverage up to 75 miles even in the daytime. FM
stations are so plentiful there is one at every proper distance on the
dial.

That panel I was so worried about came right out just like you said it
would. A small bladed screwdriver was all I needed to pry it out with and
my hand to replace it after the new radio was installed. A fellow that has
a new 2009 Sonata said the radio that came with his was a far cry than the
one I had in my 2002 XG350.
Never will forget the service manager when I asked him about the radio
being worthless on AM and his answer was " Why heck fire, nobody listens to
AM anyway."

Thanks so much.
