Yes. The theft lock is actually in the radio so the radio cannot easily be installed in a different car. If you later decide to put the radio back in the same car it will work fine. You might check your owners manual package and see if there is a card in there marked radio codes. If there is put that with the radio when you store it in case you decide to sell it or put in a different car.

As for the CD player it will do just fine. Some of those after market CD players also have security codes. Just enter them as directed and you cars computer will recognise it.

Can you replace a radio with a cassette player with a radio with cassette CD in a 1997 Buick Lesabre without worrying about some kind of theft code?

Yes, because you will be discarding your old radio anyway. If it were to have theft codes, they would be stored in the radio. Just toss your old radio, because it will be scrap. The theft code is usually in the radio itself - so if you buy a NEW CD/Radio or wahtever then if it does offer a theft code then you will have it. If you want to re-use the original radio , then you need to find its code and enter it to make it work.

Sure, if it fits. BUT if it's a newer model and has THEFTLOCK (Theft-Deterrent Feature), you will have to take it to a GM dealer to unlock it, because it will not play (something to do with the Vehicle Identification Number)...
