    Default 97 Excel stereo install help

    I just installed a pioneer deck into the GF's car for the 2nd time, but the unit just falls back into the dash when you puch a button or try to attach the face. Im wondering if there is a way to secure it so it wont fall back into the cavity?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I believe you should be able to put in a few screws from the side. Yes, you'll have to dismantle the dash, but its worth it for a job well done.

    Hangon, I'll find the site that helped me with my old excel.


    OK here it is: Hyundai Service Website

    It has changed a bit since I used, but it offers shop manuals, and details for dismantling the dashes on almost any hyundai. Among other things. No excel owner should be without this site.


    I just wish there was something like this for holden, where I could just get any manual I please and download it.
