When I removed my dash, I removed the radio with it. It just pulls right out with the dash. You just have to unplug it along with a few other things. Yes, it does just "snap" off but you have to be careful doing it.

Go to the parts house or car audio place and buy a Ford Radio Removal tool. It's a set of two horseshoe-shaped wires that plug into those little holes in the front of the radio and release a couple of little retaining clips.

You CAN make some out of welding rod or thick coathanger, but the right tool is like $5, so why improvise?
