Default radio door question

I want to install an '04 radio door on my '00 s2k. Are the parts compatable? Will I have to dismantle the console to put it in?

yep. it can be a PITA the first time you do it, but it's not that difficult to do. here's a few things you need:

screwdriver (to pop off the radio door assembly)
electrical tape (to wrap your screwdriver as to not damage your interior trimming)
wire hanger (you'll use it to pop out the whoyaw's holding the radio door to the assembly)
wadded up rag (to put on the other side of your wire hanger so, when you push, you don't put a hole in your palm)
padded work bench (to work on perhaps? )

YEP, it definately works. I have one on mine I used a really small (i forget what size) allen wrench to take the pins off of mine.

I needed no tools to remove my radio door (done it many times when I was installing the stereo, etc.) Is the '04 door not a full assembly?

To remove the factory door, open the radio door and grab a firm grip on it. Then "tug" the bottom out first. Then carefully pry the top away from the dash. The vents come with the assembly.

i'm sure you can buy the full assembly, but no. jeff sells the radio door for at or around $25, which is ONLY the door.
