Don't count on it. Anyway, it's better to run the wires yourself. The factory wires are way too small.

The wires will be there. I'm not sure about the speakers. If you're going to use the deck to power the speakers, you might as well use the stock wiring, but if you're going to amp them you'll need different wire anyway.

I didn't think you could get an f-body without a radio except the 1LE cars. Interresting.

You shouldn't have any speakers there most cars i've seen with radio delete don't have them and if they did it would just be a waste of money. I don't know about now but i thought you used to be able to order most any car or truck with out tunes

Our '91 1LE Z28 is (of course) a factory radio delete car. In addition to the antenna, it has wiring and speakers installed.
