XJS radio not working.

I would like to have the original radio in my 92 XJS repaired.
1) How do I remove it without damaging the car?
2) Can anyone recommend a radio repair business that I can send it to?
When I bought the car 6 years ago it came with a modern radio installed which I don't like. The seller included the original radio and I thought it might simple be a forgotten code problem so I had the original radio installed but no, it doesn't work.
I'm not big on listening to the radio but I'd just like it working.
Thank you in advance.

Hi NCJ
Pretty simple really, although in my own case it was taking out the Original Radio to put a Modern one it, which could also be useful to anyone else who is thinking of doing the same, as at the time I did this I knew absolutely nothing about auto electrics and had never ever fitted a Radio/Stereo before
So no one was more amazed than myself when I switched it on and it worked and then I also fitted one in my other XJS both of which were Pre-Facelift though you may find that yours is exactly the same, or at least be hopefully close enough for you to see how it goes
Fitting a Modern Stereo/Radio in a Pre-Facelift XJS was easier than it looked
