He sound like Kermit the Frog lol.
Will a Power Acoustik PL-52B fit into it? Thanks.
my radio is to wide for this car. (pioneer avh-x7500bt)
the kit doesnt fit around it. any ideas?
thanks for posting 1 question though how can I find out which stereo would be compatible for steering wheel controls?
I broke away a large amount of plastic in the radio cavity but radio is still to far out for dash piece to snap back in. Huge ugly gap is what I have.
do you need a antenna adapter for aftermarket head units?
Thanks for posting this. It was so easy to remove nearly everything with a 7mm and my hands.
What are the dimensions of a radio that can fit in the 98 Buick
I needed to change out the heater/ac control panel on my mom's 2002 Buick Century. I purchased an OEM AC/Delco replacement through WalMart for $146.00. The right side switch on the old panel was stuck/frozen between Vent and Bi-Level position. It was OK during the summer, but in the winter I couldn't get any heater/defrost function. It looks like GM/Buick has kept the exact dash panel from at least 1998-2002. Looking at your video made my job a whole lot easier. For my job all I had to do was to start at the :43 second mark of the video. I removed the two bottom screws of the center plastic piece that covers the heater/ac control. Once the screws are removed, just like he says, grab the panel on the left and right top corners and give a sharp pull and it popped right out. Next, I just un-clipped the three modular heater/ac connectors on the back of the heater/ac control module, then reconnected and reassembled everything. It took me all of 10 minutes. Thanks a lot for this great video!
Hey did you use the General Motors stereo kit if so how did you get it to mount correctly
How did you break the plastic behind the stereo? It looks like you would need a saw of some sort.
would all this apply to a 2000 Buick regal?
I have a 2005 Buick century, and bought the harness and the wiring adapter from Canadian tire, but my aftermarket will not play when everything is all hooked up. The CD player will take and eject a CD but the display doesn't light up. Can you help me with this issue?
what radio did you use ? i got a single din sized radio but once i started to install everything the radio turned out to be to big for the Buicks panel.
Awesome video! Thanks man this really helped.
Would a pioneer AVH-2800BS 6.2 fit in my 2000 Buick Century?
what did you do about steering wheel controls?
does this work for a 2000 Buick century custom with concert 2 sound stock built in I went to a flea market to a little Chinese man who could barley speak English he said he has the harness for $7 and so did auto zone but for 10$ more but he told me I would need to go buy a 100 wiring system or I wouldn't be able to hear it through the speakers
Would the Crutchfield Metra 70-2001 Harness work good? http://www.crutchfield.com/p_120702001/Metra-70-2001-Receiver-Wiring-Harness.html
Hey did you Run into a problem with putting the dash back over the radio .?? My radio seem to wide to fit back in properly
Hey man. Do the steering wheel controls still work for this radio?
