I've looked through tons of posts and kind find anywhere that anyone talks about removing the ashtray receiver...I removed the ashtray, but the piece that it slides into doesn't allow me to remove the old radio...can someone HELP?????

Thanks,

Is it spot welded to the dash?

I'm thinking that it might be since I can't find any screws, etc. But wanted to see what you guys thought before I started popping stuff loose...but I can't get the old radio out

Pull your glovebox and the radio will come out thru there.

It's tight, but you will come out with no problem.

I agree, don't bust the ash tray track out. There has to be another way to get the radio out.
