swapping out cd players

so in my 95 f150 I have a kenwood, but I want to take the pioneer out of my other car and slap it into the truck because the pioneer plays mp3s. problem is I dont have those little metal prong things to stick down the sides of the kenwood to pop it out. anyone have an idea where I can buy these things or what I could use instead?

thanks

You can make some out of metal coat hangers, but my experience is they dont work well. Walmart carries them, circuit city, best buy, or any electronics may have them.

I've gone down to Best Buy before and asked them to pull my old deck for me. They did it for free. Worst case scenario, you might have to give them $5 or something. It's at least worth a try...
