From the maintanence manual;
<div id="J9E0CM3" align="left">Center Molding (Hatchback, S/Wagon)




<div id="J9E0RP01" align="left">Removal Procedure

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Pry off the center molding.
3. Disconnect the mode control cable from the mode door.
4. Disconnect the electrical connector.
5. Remove the center molding

When it say pry off, my captiva had a couple of silver inserts either side of the radio- these needed to be pryed out- very carefully with plastic trim tools- I got mine from ebay. The panel is probably held in with little metal clips. Behind the panel, the rtadio is held in with 4 10mm bolts.Best of luck
