Pending your Walmart, some can be very craptacular. :nervous:

i'm about 40 miles north of chicago in a really busy burb.

the store I go to, Tweeter, is a national chain with locations in about 10 to 15 states. around this time of year, they have blow out sales because all the 05's are coming in.

it's a great time to go shopping for stuff I really don't need.

no doubt, the unit will just screw into place where the old radio left off.

if the radio is brand new out of box, there's a GM, metal, spacer wrapped around it that could be taken right off.

when you remove the metal spacer, you'll uncover 2 screw mounting holes. 4 screws all together will hold the new radio in place.
