Unless you find the exact radio that as you have in a junk yard or on ebay, you will have to buy an aftermarket head unit. That way you have your choice of a fm/cassette or fm/cd. You need 2 things to do this cleanly. One is the wiring harness brownboy has the link to below. The second is the faceplate mounting kit made by Metra also sold by crutchfield: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-tfA4aBgAKEZ/cgi-bin/ProdGroup.asp?c=11&g=112200&s=0&cc=01&avf=Y&search=

The factory radio has an integral faceplate. The mounting kit fills the hole left when the factory unit is removed. And you will do some splicing of the wires on the back of the unit you buy to the wires on the crutchfield harness. But you do this on your workbench or table so it is easy. I have done this, it works out great. See the FAQ's for more info
