A Phillips head screw driver and small socket will be needed to remove the dash panels. I also like to use a small pick tool that looks like a little hook to place behind the the dash panels and gentle pull the panel away from the clipped areas.
You must be careful to have removed ALL screws of each panel you are removing otherwise you will break/damage your dash.
First start by removing the screw near the cigarette lighter (to the left of the cigarette lighter).
You will need to remove the drivers side lower dash panel before you can completely remove the bezel surrounding the stereo and speedometer... because it overlaps the upper dash trim. Once you remove the bottom dash trim you can remove the 2 remaining screws from the upper bezel.
You must put the vehicle in the lowest gear position for the dash panel to clear the shifter when removing. REMEMBER to unplug all wiring harnesses and don't yank or pull to forcefully on anything... if it seems stuck then either a screw was left in tact or a wiring harness is still connected to a switch mounted in the dash panel.
Once removed you can clearly see the screws to remove the factory stereo... You must have an install kit that contains the GM wiring harness adapter otherwise you will loose some nice factory features. The wiring harness can be found at Circuit City or Best Buy!
Good Luck!
You have to remove your dash first to get to the retaining bolts which should be torx head size six i believe or if it is a factory radio then the should be two retaining forks you can buy in a stereo removal kit from your local part store the will allow you to put pressure on the two female pressure locks right next to the stereo face that will release it from its housing.
It should be fairly simple if you have a basic set of hand tools...you will need to remove the trim bezel from around the gauges, radio and climate controls...check on the under side of any lips or edges for screws and remove them if present...the rest of the bezel will be held on by clips so you should be able to gently pry and pull the bezel off the dash...also if your blazer is an automatic with the shifter on the column place it in first gear to get the shifter out of the way...you may also need to disconnect any switches from the wiring harness...as you pull the bezel away from the dash you will be able to just unplug them...once you have the bezel out of the way you will be able to unscrew the radio and remove it. You can also obtain full instruction that are specific to your vehicle here:<br>http://www.crutchfield.com/p_700MASTER/Crutchfield-MasterSheet.html?tp=643<br>They will also send them to you free if you purchase anything such as a new radio or speakers for your blazer as well....good luck
You have to remove instrument panel and dash panel to get to radio simply unscrew all screws and remove.
Remove the plastic bezel that goes around the dash cluster. Move the plastic tabs that lock in the radio and slide radio out far enough to disconnect wires and antenna.
