Default I need help with Installation of an original AM Radio on a 66?

I bought a rehabilitated 1966 AM radio. What is the best route to remove existing radio? I have added AC and a glove box, so those routes are more difficult. Thanks in advance for any help.

Unfortunately, you are going to have to remove the glove box and the gauge pod. As you know, the glove box is a cardboad affair and can be folded to remove from the back side. Be careful you don't damage the heater contacts. You replace the Am radio from underneath the glovebox area. You hook up the electricals and speakers from the gauge pod area. They are just plug ins. Now, what I have explained is the original setup. If your car has been hacked, I can't help you.
