4th GEN CD in a 3rd gen Camaro

Anyone install a 4th gen CD head unit in their third gen? All the late model stuff says 96 up etc. Can you buy adapters for these?

I've got the Monsoon CD head unit in my '91 Formula. To physically install it you have to notch out the back corner of the separate radio console because it is deeper than the cassette unit that used to be there. You will also have to elongate a couple of the mounting holes on the brackets on the front of the CD unit itself. That's all there is to it. The harness connector is the same for the original radio. Plays all four speakers with the correct front to back fade adjustment. Same for the left and right as well.

Not sure if it would be different for the Camaro, but could/probably will be since they don't have the separate radio console....
