MG MGF Technical - radio removal

having just got a lovely 1996 mgf in green, i have decided to whip out the radio (that is broken) and insert something that can handle an ipod being plugged into it. However, i have no idea how to take the radio out. anyone got any pointers?

n.b.
its the original cassette player, which i have lost the code to

If it is the original, you can look up the code from the car's registration number. Somebody on the F register was looking to buy an original one this week.

ah, that might be easier and cheaper than buying a new radio. how does one find out the code to unlock the radio then?
