You have to remove the cupholder/shifter plastic cover. Then remove the radio/air conditioning faceplate bezel cover. You will then see the radio is held in by 4 bolts I believe. Remove these, pull radio forward, unplug all connectors & radio can be removed.

First remove the lid to the center console via the 4 (or so) screws along the hinge. Then peel back the front of the carpeting inside the center console to reveal 2 screws that hold the cupholder trim piece in place and remove those. Then remove the rubber liner in the front cupholder and remove the screw there, then the cupholder/shifter trim piece should come out (it has a clip on the front of it; just pull once you remove the screws). Then 2 screws up near the top of the vents and 2 screws below where the cupholder trim piece was hold the radio bezel in place, as well as a clip (similar to the one you just removed) on the left side of the bezel. Remove that, and there are 4 screws holding the radio in place. Viola.

That was for my '96; I forget what year exactly they redid the interior, 93 or 94, but yours should be similar.
