Opening HT-1000 Case

[tlittle]

Hello,

Could anyone direct me to instructions on removing the case of a Motorola HT-1000.

Thank you!

Remove the antenna, volume knob, and channel knob. The two knobs just pull straight off (may need a pair of pliers, just don't be too rough with them). Lay the radio on it's face, with the top facing away from you and the battery removed. Insert a screwdriver between the bottom of the metal chassis and the plastic front half, and gently pry, as if you wanted to push the metal chassis up, while swinging the screwdriver down away from the radio. The bottom of the metal chassis should slide out of the plastic front half from the bottom, and you can then pull the metal chassis down out of the top of the plastic front half. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here, I'm working entirely from memory.

Good memory, you're exactly right.

Motorola makes a tool for this, which will leave fewer marks than a screwdriver.
