How dos the bezel around the radio get removed? Just pop it off or does other trim around need to be removed first?
If you're referring to this piece:

Then it just pops off. No screws involved. No other trim removal required. Work a PLASTIC pry bar around the outside. There are a total of 4 clips, 2 on top, 2 on the side near the bottom. Also expect wires going to the climate controls.
On one of mine there are two screws sort of hidden, just above the climate controls, that is where I would start. We will remove it soon and repaint a different color. Good luck.
That's it exactly.
No screws then?
Correct, to remove that bezel there are no screws. There are 2 screws to remove the radio once that bezel is removed, but that will become obvious when the bezel is gone.
On the 1996 xlt there are 2 small screws on the front on the facing. these are practically hidden near the botton. once you get those out, and pull the radio out (which is still attached) there are two screws on the right side that hold the radio in.
