My stock radio is a piece of crap and I am getting a new cd player to put in. I want to install it myself but I have no Idea how to open of the dash to get the old one out and the new one in! Could you tell my how to take it off? I really didn't want to charge in and not know what I'm up against.

It's a 96, sorry, I feel like an idiot because I forgot to mention that at first!

on the drivers side kick panel there should be 2 phillips screws. take them out, and just leave that plastic hang there, then the dash should just pop off all the way around. Remove the 2 bolts, 7mm I believe securing the old radio in, swap them, and reassemble it all over again. Its not hard, just have to have the shifter (if on the column) all the way down in 1st, and you have to do a lot of messing with the tilt wheel, but it is possable. I've dont it befor, twice. Good luck.
