    You need to have your factory radio bezel cut so the sleeve from the CD Player fits nice and tight. (As pictured below) I wouldn't use a installation kit, I doubt there is one for our cars. This is the way I and others have done theirs, fits and looks great.

    Yes...you need a radio bezel. The ones pictured above are for a 1970-Early 1973. You need one for a 1973-1977. I have some if you need one. Email me directly (see below) if I can help.

    He's right. I didn't have any pictures of the later bezel.
