Cutlass Radio

[SmokedOutCutt]

Will a radio from a 96 cutlass work in my 88?

Thanks in advance. You guys are the sh*t.

Plug-ins will be different I am sure, but you could always find a diagram for the wires of each car and mate them.....probably won't mount directly, but 99% of the time you can fab something to make it mount.
http://www.corvetteradios.com/Page.html has some info on GM wiring...
http://mnrelectronics.com/par1612to21p.html has some adapter harnesses, and may have what you are looking for.

I just want to most GM radios upto 2002 will fit in a G-body....I have a 2002 Delco Monsoon out of a 2002 Camaro in my 1986 Regal all you have to is swap out radio brackets and get 12 to 21 harness from Metra and it is plug and play...........

Awesome. I'm waiting for the harness to arrive in the mail any day now. I should be able to get it in and put some pics up if I ever get a day off work. Thanks, this post def. eased my mind a little bit about the compatibility.

I agree, but its hard to beat free. I still think it will look better than aftermarket...I hope.

To me, all the aftermarket radios look cheap and cheesy, even from the trusted brands, unless you shell out a grand.....and I am not. Will probably put the factory radio I picked up in my Salon, or send it in as a core to one of the places that modify it to use an ipod, mp3 player, etc....you can find them on eBay I know, though they are a couple of bills.
