Installing OEM Radio
My GTA had an aftermarket radio/cd player in it when I bought it. I picked up a Delco Remy stock radio/cassett player awhile back and ready to do the swap out. Before I tear out the aftermarket, are there small brackets used to bolt in the OEM radio to the radio pod ? And if so, does anybody out there have any for sale ? Just like to have everything I need before I switch back to the stock radio. The stock radio I bought came with no mounting hardware.

Re: Installing OEM Radio
Should all already be there, unless someone hacked up the metal of the radio pod area to install the aftermarket unit you are removing.

Re: Installing OEM Radio
GTA radios have a removeable "L" bracket on each side of front of the HU. Sounds like you might be missing those, but they shouldn't be too difficult to fab up. Most of the radio is held in by the rear stem, the front brackets aren't doing that much of the lifting.
The bigger problem is usually the mounting pod. Very cheap plastic that breaks easily.
