i think it is a pretty custom job, IIRC, the radio controls in the LS are actually molded into the center desh, along with the climate controls and other functions. My 95 sts had a removeable radio but 96 and newer had them as one whole piece, really annoying to do a custom install, usually requires some modification of the oem panel and fabrication of new radio trim panels. If i had more free time I would do a job like that but it is pretty involved to get it look stock, but its possible. If i'm wrong about the LS and the radio is seperate, then its still a basic install like my 7" flip out pioneer unit in my SS. You just want to make sure all the weight is supported, not just held by the front mounting screws.
