DETAILS
READ THIS PARAGRAPH: This is a parts listing, not a radio! Some people buy from our parts listings thinking they're getting a radio, despite VERY clear titles, pictures and ads. If we send an email, asking you to confirm your intent to order a part, please answer it. We reserve the right to cancel any order if we're concerned it was purchased in error. It's NOT something to leave negative feedback over. We're not refusing to sell to you. We're just trying to protect you. It can always be re-purchased if there was mis-communication.
If you're reading this after-the-fact, please take accountability for your actions. This ad is very clear, if you actually read it. Now, on to the item details...
Radios with this same basic face were offered in the Vibe, Matrix (with GM radio) and Bonneville. We listed it for the Grand Prix too because
the buttons can be used but you will not be able to use the trimplate. (The Grand Prix has mounts that are molded into the trimplate, which
this one does not have.) If you are buying it for a Matrix, make sure your radio looks like this one. They used Toyota radios in some of those vehicles, instead of this GM version.
This is the version with black buttons and it is exactly as pictured. It is not the version with light gray buttons, although we have that version listed too. It only works on am/fm/cd/cassette radios. (And CD radios, if you just want to use some of the buttons and not the entire trimplate.) It does not work on CD6 radios.
Make sure you re-read this ad and understand what you're getting: A new face with new knobs and buttons. Not a radio. Not a control/display board.
Instructions are not included but you can follow these basic guidelines. If you're not experienced with working on radios or electronic equipment, you should not be attempting this repair. Take it to someone qualified. Do not attempt this repair with the radio still plugged in. Further, make sure the radio is unplugged for at least 30 minutes before attempting the repair. Failure to do so can result in an electrical short. You will have to remove the bottom plate from the radio, unscrew the cassette drive and unplug the two cables coming from the face BEFORE attempting to remove your current face. Failure to do so can result in damage to the cables. Once the cables are unplugged, pry the face away from the radio at the tabs. (If your radio has screws on the side of the face, you will need to remove those too.) Once the face and board are off, you will remove the 1/8" screws that hold the board to the face. After you pull the knobs from the face of the radio, the board should lift off. You will then have access to the buttons if that's all you want to change. Or you can simply attach the board to the new face.
