We pulled our whole dash out and tore it all apart while on a set of saw horses.  I do not remember the order that we removed everything, so we are a little unsure about 1 thing.  Is the radio easy to change out when the dash is in the car and fully assembled?  The radio I want to get is a long lead time.  I am thinking we can just put the dash back together minus the radio and then put the radio in once it comes. It seems like this should be easy, but I want to make sure that there isn't something that I don't know.
Thanks

Easy enough to do it that way. Do you have the brace that go's to the radio from the dash.  :alan2cents:

Yup, two minute job to drop out the radio with the dash in the car :alan2cents:

Did you order a Custom Autosound Radio? If so they don't bolt in like they say they do.
