1. Buy aftermarket radio of choice. 2. Remove plastic trim around old radio and air control.3. Unbolt old radio housing and undo wiring harness in back along with the antena wire. 4. Pull out old radio cpmpletly and keep in a col dry place.5. Go to Walmart and find wiring harness for gm vehicles that have 1996 Corsica listed on back. Also get a dash board kit the matches the Corsica. 6. Get wiring harness out of new radios box and match up the wires according to both the wiring harnesses manuals. 7. Outside your car or in ur seat( basically it doesn't have to be connected to your car) Use wire twist caps or a wire crimp connector set to conect wires from after market radios harness to wallmart one.( buy a crimp set with crimp pliers while your at the mart. Helped me a lot)8. When all conneections are made good and secure attach the walmart end harness( plastic female part) to the cars plastic adapter already in car. 9. Place dashboard kit in and attach it according to direction ( kinda tricky) 10. Place after market radio in with its sleve on and attach last avialbe harness to bqck of new radio and plug in antena 11. Put trim back on and stay it all in place.12. Voilà your done!
