Remove aftermarket cd player

Ok so my girlfriend has an aftermarket CD player in here 94 grand am and she is selling it to get a new car. She wants me to take out her Cd player because I've done it before.

Probelm is, I haven't taken one out in a Grand Am before. Every car is different. So is there a How To that someone knows about and could let me know?

I can't remember the configuration of the Dash panel on the 94 GA, but I will look at my haynes manual this morning and post a reply later.

I looked at my Haynes manual and from what I can tell you may have the flat face panel, if so the front panel is held on with clips and should pop right off if you carefully pry behind it. Once off there should be 4 screws that hold the head unit to the dash. In most cases the aftermarket units just slid in and are held in place by those screws in some cases there is a plastic guide nipple that slips into a hole in the brackets on the back of the dash. After you are able to get the unit to move out some you will have to pull the antenna lead out of the back of the unit the lead looks like the cable line from inside your house with a metal tip with a long pin. After that is released you may have more room to pull the radio out farther, this will depend on how it was installed, some people direct wire to the wiring harness of the car. Others will use the adapter plugs which match up to the factory plugs. The adapter will be directly wired to the wire leads off of the radio. If the radio is direct wired to the harness and the original factory plugs are gone if you are going to put a factory radio back in the car you will have to either order the plugs from a dealer, or hit a salvage yard and cut them out of a trashed GM car of that year. At some point GM changed the plugs for the factory radios, you will have to find the ones that match the radio you will be installing. The wire colors have stayed the same so you can just match up the colors and wire it in.

Let me know if you have any questions, I'll get bcak to you with an answer as soonas I can. I used to install aftermarket radios and accessories and I can remember the plug change from GM but I can't remember which year they changed (sorry)

Let me know if I can be of any more help.

Awesome. This should help out tremendously. Thanks.
