[DML] Re: Replacing Radio - how it's done?

["soma576" <Soma576@xxxxxxx>]

David,

I'm not sure if you can find radios that fit the original space anymore, but you can definitely buy a single-DIN size replacement console bracket from the major vendors.  They might also have a radio harness adaptor that plugs into the original harness, then you crimp the wires from your new radio to the wires hanging off of the harness.  There is still a lot of crimping involved but at least you don't have to hack up your original harness.

I did this quite a while back - if you have any more detailed questions just shoot me an email, I can probably help.

My original doesn't work the screen is smashed and it sucks not having a radio in the car. I just have no idea how to find a radio that will fit and then get hooked into the wire harness back there.
