It (Chevy Cavalier Type 10) came equipped with an AM radio. I want to replace it with an AM/FM stereo w/cassette. My questions are: 1) Should I attempt to do it myself? The hook-up procedure seems simple, its the installation procedure I'm concerned about. The Chevy has a console that looks like it would be easy to work on. 2) Does a power booster (40 watt) make a significant difference? The unit I'm installing is an Audiovox 3200 (an older model) that comes with a seperate power amp. I would guess that the player puts out no more than eight watts. 3) Can anyone recommend a good book on how install a unit? Any and all suggestions will be welcome.
