Re: stereo install..
It will not and you have to cut the dash if it is an older tape type deck with tuning nobs. If it is newer and is the huge radio you will need to fab up a plate to mount it. any pics would help.

Re: stereo install..
Like said above.... you may need to trim the dash and install.

Re: stereo install..
the fronts are 3.5 in mine,now installed,with cut old grills over them for protection
no holes in the jimmy dash so the ac holes will be fine till next year i picked up these half price at best buy and boxes for the back sounds great prob the best it's ever seen stock was AM 1 speaker lol oh and the radio is stock for 96 olds 98

Re: stereo install..
You will have to trim your dash a bit where the tuning knobs were originally but you can get a kit from ebay or possibly wal mart that will look like this:
It almost matches the original wood grain too! The "wood" is actually a really thick sticker that you can peel off if you dont like it. I think the whole thing cost me $25 |

Re: stereo install..
Oh and on your speakers you can squeeze a set of 6.5" in the bottom of the front doors but they need to be centered, front to rear, if you have power windows. I run 6.5" up front in the doors and 6x9" where the original 4x10" were in the rear and it gives great sound.
