Arrow 97 cav stereo

hi

[1997 chevy cavalier sedan]

im 16 and saw this sony deck headunit for 150 $ it even has a front auxilary which is wicked. To install it i need what the fitting kit thing and.....do i just take out the plugs from the old one and popem in there ...or do i have to do any crimping or ...

is there anything to explain the process? tools needed?

also i remember a post explaing how to take off the dash to install a deck on my model it was very detailed can anyone link me to it?

so ill be doing it myself and would apreciate information because i neeed to know about the whole process cause im not experienced. will it fit and be compatible if i use the fitting kit with the deck

anything else i need?

thank you im hoping to make this a project for a day this summer

i have a sony head unit and i don't see anything wrong with it but if you meet any car audio people they will sony-bash you... so if you wanna fit in with them, get a pioneer, kenwood, or alpine....

Re: 97 cav stereo

yes you need a wireharness. thats the only way your going to be able to hook that bitch up. shouldnt need an antenna adaptor. you will also need a mounting kit. you can get this at like a circuit city

I had a sony xplod deck in my 2.2, with 17's and lowered, alot of the bumps i hit made my cd skip, granted tho, i don't know how old the deck is because it came with the car when i bought it
