radio installation tip.
After removing and installing the radio and speakers half a dozen times, I stumbled across a trick that really makes it easier. Turn the wipers on and shut the ignition switch off when the right wiper arm is pointing straight up. This will position the right side connecting bar up and over the area where the radio needs to slide towards the firewall to clear the dash panel and can then be easily rotated towards the glove box door opening. Also remove the ashtray and the bracket that it slides into, the glovebox and door, and the right side defrost hose. Although not absolutely necessary, some will find that removing the instrument cluster really opens up the access. Most probably know all of this but some may find these tips helpful hopefully.
This may help some currently but also will help others g**gling in the future.
