Well, you can probably get it to fit into the hole ;-) ha, but it will definitely need a new harness...and if you have the steering wheel mountain controls or any other special features, you will lose them if that radio doesn't support it. Just get a Blazer wire chart and a LeSabre wire chart, and compare what wire goes to what, and just play the matching game. If they all match and they all go somewhere correctly, it will most likely work.

As long as that radio doesn't have the theft protection where you need a password, or you at least know it.

it will not work. the connectors are different, and the Le-Sabre just like the Bonneville and others actually interface into the ECU, and use a RAP module. (connects the door chimes to the door speaker and also keeps the radio after you turn the ignition off until you open the door)Also why you need a special box to connect an aftermarket radio into that car. also installing this radio, even if getting it connected to the truck and powered up will trip the theft protection on the radio then you will need the code or possibly the VIN of the car that it came out of.

The Blazer's stereo doesn't stay on after you turn off the ignition? Maybe the Bravada is a little more different than I thought...

Mine stays on until the door opens, I believe it has retained accessory power, too.

I really don't see a reason why you couldn't get it to work if everything hooks up correctly. Even if the radio controls the bells in the Buick, it's separate on the Blazer, so just bypassing it shouldn't do anything....but I could be wrong, I never experimented with this...

The black pins in the back won't work for the Blazer either, the Blazer only has one in the middle, this radio you posted up has two.
