It's a pretty fiddly radio and I'd like something simpler. Plus, I'd like > a cup holder. Why?

But the project entails switching the radio bin/basket in the dash - something that I'm not sure can be done without removing the dash facia. From there, there's also the issue of wiring the new amplifier/basket into the dash when, in all liklihood, connections aren't going to match up between 1987 and 1992. Thus, I'm hoping someone has some experience with this?
