How to pull the radio??

I just got a 2006 f250 work truck, and it has a simple am/fm radio in it and I wonder if anyone knows how to pull the stock radio out of the dash? I've been looking at some oem units on e-bay to replace it so I got at least a cd player. Any comments

If the radio does not have any holes then the entire top of the dash from the left of the steering wheel all the way to the right of the radio removes simply by pulling. I removed the dash to access the radio on my new f250 King by pressing and pulling on the upper dash then removing all the plugs attached behind the dash. Good luck!

Thanks guys. Their is no holes in it so I guess I got to pull apart the molding. The only reason I am looking oem is I saw one on ebay go for about 100 bucks. I ain't gonna get a good aftermarket for that. Also...its not my truck...its the company's so I don't want to sink to much money into it. I almost thinking about getting a XM set-up??????
I can take that with me when I ditch the truck in a few years.
