Hey,

I'm hoping you can provide me with the following information. I would like to know what it is I need ( other then a CD player and speaker) and how would I install a car stereo in a 1996 Cavalier? Thanks ahead.

you'll need a dash kit, wiring interface harness and antenna adapter... if you havent done a Cavalier of this vintage yet you are in for a treat.... the upper dash pad has to be raised so you can unbolt and remove the front dash bezel around the radio.... expect it to take you an hour or more.....

ya!

Theres screws along the drivers side upper dash pannel and the passangers side upper dash pannel and along the upper defrost vent and screws behind the glove box and I think above the dash cluster gauge... theres like 10 or so screws you have to remove then the whole top half of the dash will come off and then the entire trim around the radio has a few screws in it also It will definately take time and patience!!!

GOOD LUCK!! TELL US HOW IT GOES!
