1) Do you have a firebird or a camaro?

2) Brute force solves alot.

Answer question #1 and we'll start helping from there.

What year 4th gen console do you have? There is a difference between the 93-97 consoles and the 98+ consoles.

Have you clipped the little tabs off of the console? They are near the front and keep the radio pod from fitting
