can somebody explain to me how to take out my stock radio in detail cause i dont know......on a 89 caprice

On the bezel in the center of the dash, there are two screws that you can access just above the bezel underneath the Caprice flower in the center of the dash. Now, take out the ash tray and if you look directly above, in the vertical orientation, you will see two silver 7-mm head screws. Take these out, too, and the bezel will be loose. You will have to remove the glove box cover and the box itself in order to remove the control cable from the door on the A/C - this has to be done to free up the bezel enough that it can come out.

Once you have the A/C control disconnected, as well as all wires to the radio, it should come out. From there you should be able to see the screws that hold the radio assembly to the bezel. There are two between the radio and the heater-A/C control and these are most easily obtained by removing the control first.

Assembly is the opposite of removal.

Good answer!

:shakehead :banghead: :screwy: YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.. no wonder I couldnt get my radio out last summer

Yeah those screws get lost in all the black plastic there pretty easily. I was trying to get a unit out of a car in a salvage yard once years ago when I ran into the same issue. I was buying the whole interior so I just took all of the pieces. Once I had it home and sat it on the bench it became clear what needed done.
