Default New stereo on an 82, does dash need to be cut?

I know this should technically be in audio but i figured i would get a faster response here. When putting in an aftermarket single din stereo in an 82 is their a dash kit for it or does the dash panel need to be cut or modified?

Most older cars with the "****" style stock stereos will have to be cut.

It's a plastic bezel. Cut it with a dremel tool. Easy stuff.

Or if you're feeling guilty about cutting it, buy another bezel for 99 bucks and cut that one.
