The wire connections are different than your 92 harnesses but that still doesn't mean that it won't work. Probably need a pin-out diagram for it to tell for sure.

That'* a really nice unit, though. I hope they will work. It would look good in my 90.

EDIT: The more I look at it, the more it looks like a double DIN chassis. Not an easy fit.
Back is 7 inches across and 4 inches high and 6 inches deep.

that radio is 1/12 DIN... It looks exactly like the radio in both of our 2000'* just with the MP3 on it and a few different cosmetic colors. nothing major is different though.

That radio is a double DIN. Specs from two double DIN headunits from www.crutchfield.com:

Kenwood Excelon DDX7015
Key Features:
» double-DIN (4" tall) chassis

JVC KW-XC777
Key Features:
» double-DIN chassis (4" tall) with fixed face
It will not directly fit our cars without modifications to the dash and trim.

I agree you would be better off with an after market one

It would atleast fit right and you'd be able to run subs and other things off of it.
