Replacing the Radio in a 1992 Regal

I know this radio in this car is a real pain, I want to install a new radio in the area where the tape player is now can someone tell me where I can get a replacement harnesses for aftermarket radios as well as a faceplate for the new radio?

Thanks!!

you can get the wiring harness anywhere they sell car stereos Autozone, Wal-Mart, Ect, But you will have to go to circut city or best buy to get the Dash kit to make it fit in the tape player opening

There is a step by step pdf too if you need it, pm me. The dash kit might run you around 12-20$, and the wiring harness might run you 5-9$. Buy about 12 foot extra speaker wire, as you need to extend the wires running from the amp under the dash to the tape player were the new deck would go. You Do not nessaceraly need a dash kit, there is a metal clip (if you will) on the back side of the insert. You will see it, just bend the bottom center tab down a little bit, and wiggle it into there, it stays......... And if you remove the tuner, take some duck tape or something and you can make a little pocket to store your cig's, change, w/e.......
Good luck

yes ,you will need to extend the wiring harness from the new stereo to the exsisting wiring harness but please dont use speaker wire for any of the electrical connections there is a reason it is called SPEAKER WIRE!
they also sell a plastic pocket that goes in place of the tuner on the dash for misc. things, but if you can't duck it
F*ck it

lmao, i foudn nice blue duck tape, and its a little lighter, but it works. Makes a nice cig pocket or something...... IF you want to do it right, go buy 12 or 10 gauge wire from advanced auto or autozone or w/e your fav. store is. Your is for the power and ground, it works wonders.

personally i justr re ran all new wires it really wasn't that hard in my opinion not to mention i always bypass factory amps they are ridiculous and screw dash wiring harnesses they are overpriced and i prefer adding in-line fuses just incase. plus i mean look at the gauge of the factory wires . lol any ways good luck. and may it work you first try. also i'd like that pdf also just to browse if you don't mind. it'd be interesting to see how i "should've" done it. kronikkontraband(at)msn.com
