Uh oh.. The famous 92/93 SSE/SSEi radio removal problem rears its ugly head again.

Sorry, dumb question probably. I'm not an electrical expert, but what'* the worry about it not dimming? I'm going to add an aftermarket deck sometime, should I have to worry about this stuff? Thanks.

It is supposed to dim just like your compass and your DIC. The above-referenced procedure solves the problem.

You can thank the engineers at GM for their clever design.
