Default Upgrading Sound system for the 77' F150

Hello,

just wondering if anyone has installed a new CD reciever in their old F150. i am having a hell of a time figuring out what goes where. i just took out the original AM FM radio. they didnt have harnesses back then. any inquiry would help. thanks guys

Best wishes,
Highway.

Cut one to fit where the original is or keep it there and use a Metra under dash kit. Just run new wires to the dash speakers, and door if you are cutting new speakers there. Ign/acc, ground, and constant is all thats left, gl.
