Anyone know where I can find the metal mounting brackets for a stock Delco stereo?

 

Try crutchfield.com or your local stereo store

 

He needs the ones that came off the original stereo. They are not sold at stereo stores.

 

Camaro or Firebird? Because they're different.

Camaro are wicked simple to fab from angle iron, or aluminum angle, etc. Firebird are a little more complicated.

I'd probably start by busting out The Book to find the part numbers. Then Google the numbers to see if they've been superseded, and if any NOS stock is available. Then search Ebay. If those options came up empty, junkyards looking for stock radios and also at any thirdgen with a generic mounting kit, since many were setup to use the OE brackets. Then I'd look to classifieds, a wanted ad here, watch Craigslist or whatever for part outs, etc. They turn up from time to time.

 

Drew is correct!
I been there and done it with my missing stereo and brackets.
I got a CD am fm unit from a bird and needed those brackets.
I ended up just buying a cheap install kit from wally world and
used the cheap knockoff brackets that came with the $10 kit.

SURE they were't the metal GM goods but they worked and
were hidden by the faceplate/surround anyhoo.

I figured Crutchfield would have them as they have about any
other stereo install wiring, plug, and dodad anyhoo.

 

Yeah no luck with crutchfield. do you remember what the kit was? I bought this one and it ended up not working. https://www.rickscamaros.com/camaro-...1982-2002.html

 

BTW:
Do you have a bird or camaro?

 

Yeah sorry, camaro, I just learned that birds or camaros are different in that respect.

 

I have have a few sets of these. I’m happy to dig them out of my parts supply this week if you are still looking. They’re definitely hard to find nowadays though. Most junkyard third gens have been hacked up and had junky aftermarket stuff installed

 

God yes, I've been looking for these for weeks.

 

Sounds good. I’ll email you some pics this week when I can get to them.
