Dash kit question
I just ordered a dash kit from amazon, it said 96-2001 on the description but when I recieved it, it says 97-01...I have a 1996 cherokee classic. Would this work? or would I have to return it and buy another? Thanks!

I believe the dash changed in 97 so it wont fit a 96. I would return it if i were you. Someone correct me if im wrong.
What was included in the kit?

is it a single din stereo?? In the older style 96 and under dash a single din stereo will fit almost perfect without the dash kit. Just saying though.

Well you might be able to figure out a way to lock it but I dont see how a dash kit would keep people from steeling it. Once the dash is back on the screws for the stereo are under it and the dash has to be removed to take it out. You could always get a head unit with a removable faceplate and just take it off when you leave the vehicle. Thats what I do.
