Replacing radio

[BOP4ever]

I need some step by step instructions on getting the old factory Radio out of my 87... I am putting in a Pioneer double din direct fit in it's place... how does the surround come off the dash etc.... Thanks !

Just pull the surround right off, it's held in by clips. You won't be able to fit a double din unit without custom work.

After the surround is pulled off there are 4 screws holding the bracket in. I think the opening is din 1/2 not double din.

Gee the crutchfield site said it was a direct bolt in for the original... I hope it is...

So the trim panel just pulls straight off from the front and then remove the screws holding the radio and it comes out and unplugs from the front as well ?

Thats it. Plugs are on the rear of the radio with tabs to push to release.

Then its a din and half, not a double din.
