4th gen radio question....

I want to put a 4th gen in my 91 RS.I'm thinking about getting a '98 model or so cd head unit to put in and I was wondering if it will fit without cutting or alteration.Also, is'nt the harness pretty much the same?

Thanks
-Ken

It will fit, but you might have to cut the little plastic thingy on the back of the radio. Harness I do not know too much about, but I have seen MANY 4th gen radios in third gens.

Do a search on it and you will see what I mean

If you plan to go with a factory changer get a HU from an '00 or newer.
