if its anything like a 94 no. u have to pull the panel under the steering wheel and take down your glove box you will see the screws/bolts i belive there 7 or 8 mm very easy,

if you need to get the the stereo you have to take off the panel under the steering wheel, then there are 2 bolts under that, 3 along the left side of the glove box after you open it up then the trim piece pops out. thats how it was in my friends '95 last week

you have to take the dash down, its not an option...you cant just take out the center console...

its not the entire dash is a small peice on the left under the wheel and jsut open the glove box push up on the arm that the glove box lid is attached with and the lid will flop all the way open then take out the screws and the center will jsut come off then. its how almsot all the gm cars work far as i know my sunfire is the exact same way too.

heres the cars i've dealt with

1990 Acura legend (easy as hell)

1987 Nissan 300zx (easy as hell)

2003 Dodge durango (PITA)

and soon to be the 1997 camaro

Funny. I got a 1997 Pontiac Firebird and all I have to do is pop the panel around the stereo off and unscrew 4 screws and WALLA!! I knew I chose a Firebird for something.
