Dash is cut, any way to fix back ot OE?
The 86' now has a newer radio in the dash and the preverious (sp) owner cut the dash to put it in. I have a nice bezel that is not cut and want to put an OE radio back in my truck. Is there a simple fix so the OE radio will stay in the truck? Has anyone done this? What can be done so to be able to go back to the OE?

you could cut on out of an untouched dash and weld it in or replace the intire dash (metal part of dash is removable) but all the a/c and heater ducts will have to be removed and all the wireing harness what a pia just put a newer style stereo in it and enjoy b/c the stocker stereos kinda suck

Do not think I want to do that. If this is the only way then I will keep the newer style radio. Thanks

Now I will have to figure out the best way to cut the new bezel for the radio. Not sure the best way to do this.
