Great video and thanks for posting. I am working on the stereo for my '96 Corvette [back-lighting on clock out]. First, I did have to remove 4 bolts from the console to remove the console lid; once doing so, I was able to remove the shifter panel. Also, there are a total of six screws to remove the stereo on the '96. Same 4 that are shown here, plus a lower one on the left and right. Once removed, the unit slid out easily. Thanks again for the post!
Thank you for posting this video, I bought a '93 Corvette ( privately), and someone put an aftermarket kenwood unit that keeps shutting off. So I will replace it with the stock AC Delco / Bose head unit.
I still have not heard what is required in order to put a 6.2 aftermarket media player in to replace the non working Bose system in my 1990 Corvette Basic Coupe. Another video for that would be appreciated. Thanks excellent tutorial for this part of the job.
Thank you... great video... I just got a 95 black c4 with 87k and the cd player works one day next day it wont... gonna probably go with newer deck with Bluetooth
I would like to add that my trim panel came out a lot harder than shown. I found 2 metal spring clips holding the trim panel. One at top left side of head unit. The other about 2/3 way down at right side of radio.
Now that the head unit is out. What would be the maximum size after market head unit I could place in that location with the stock face plate. I am looking at 2 Din 6.2 inch media player. Excellent tutorial thanks
Followed this to the letter and out it came. Much to my surprise, the head unit say 95 in yellow letters on top of it. That tells me it's a 1995 Corvette radio from a auto dismantler. My Vette is a 92. Now I understand why the letters on the radio head are white, not the orange color on the rest of my interior. So my presumption is correct, I am not the first guy in this project on my Vette. I feel so violated :-(
@@lindyp38 It’s hard to explain, but I just had to do it myself. For the manuals you have to remove the center compartment door. And since it’s a stick the dash piece around it is much more difficult to remove. Have to take tue shifter knob off because the leather around the shifter is attached to the dash piece. Took me a while but I figured it out, at the cost of not sleeping that night 😂
It can be done... Purchased equipment, kit, wire harness, antenna adapter, audio adapter, rewire, speakers, LABOR, it all add$ up... You may add new audio features but will loose the quality sound from the original Bose system. See repair options at CarStereoHelp.com/corvette.htm and adding audio input. Non-Bose system, would be easier.
THIS is what a how-to video should be! Methodical and easy to follow. No wasted editorializing.
Awesome help and time saver for when I figure out which route I will take to get some sounds in my ride.

Excellent video. Thank you sir.
thanks for the video, very helpful
Thank you on your unselfish explanation.
Why are you removing it with the power on?
Now that the head unit is out. What would be the maximum size after market head unit I could place in that location with the stock face plate. I am looking at 2 Din 6.2 inch media player. Excellent tutorial thanks
Do you have a video on how to connect the seat control buttons ?
Thanks! Very informative and appreciated.
Below the radio is a connector of some type. What does that do ? I noticed that when the radio was slowly removed

The removal is shown with an automatic, the six speed does not come apart this simply.
Y?
