1976 Radio Issues
This is a two fold question. I'm looking at purchasing a RetroSound replica for my 76'. Has anyone purchased one and could you upload a photo of how it looks in the car? Also, is there a trick to getting the 2 hidden bolts out that connect the gauge cluster to the center console. I pulled everything out yesterday and thought wow, the center console sure bends easy until I realized the previous owner broke it to shoe horn in a radio that wasn't even from the right era. I'm going to have to purchase a new one and don't want to damage it during the re-installation process.

You might need a 1/4 inch deep socket to remove the original nuts and you may find it easier the get the nuts started before you install the new bezel.
Coupling nuts might work also.
