Need help installing a headunit in an 08 cobalt

[jonny_b]

Wow. This almost makes me not want to install my head unit.......i did say almost though since i have an 05 anyway. Lol.

why this isnt really even like a thread. its a bunch of random nonsense mixed with misinformation

 

[YelloEye]

did u unplug anything related to the airbag and turn on the car with it unplugged?

Truth.

 

[jonny_b]

That was sarcasm. Lol. I don't care how hard it is, i will always replace the stock stereo in my cars. But i did forget about the window crank clips. Lol.

 

[emperorjj1]

ya those are bullshti. unless u got a window clip tool and some luck

 

[jonny_b]

Which i have neither, so i should just order new cranks and clips now.

 

[emperorjj1]

lol ya ive done it without the tool before. ya um **** that. how did u get them off? sawzaw?

 

[jonny_b]

Lmao!! I haven't taken one off in years now. I have only done door speakers with power windows recently, so it was easy. Before i broke both side on my 88 grand am but had a friend at a junkyard pull me 2 knew ones and he told me about the tool. Lol. I haven't done my stereo yet, but probably will be doing it next weekend since i don't get my cobalt till wed. Waiting sucks. Lol

as for those little manual crank window handles u dont need a fancy tool i just took my off yesterday with my Hook pick just pry light on the handle to get enough clearance
