Default What fits well?

Okay audiophiles.. I have the factory stereo/ standard cassette player and want a cd/am/fm. Single disc is fine. What will fit well in my 95 and sound pretty decent with existing four factory speakers. I'm an old guy and just want to upgrade to cd player pretty much. Also, how do you get the factory unit out?? Thanks.

it all depends what you are looking for, its very easy to change out the deck and add another, you will need a dash install kit, wiring harness and the unit.

are you wanting possible ipod? tv? sattelite radio? the more info the easier we can find something for you

Just a simple am/fm/cd player. I'd like to keep the factory look too. I wonder what year models will fit my truck? Thanks.

Just an update in case someone else may need info on it in the future. I bought a low end Kenwood am/fm/cd with a front plug for ipod. Had to get install kit and harness adapter also..about 25 bucks for these items. Installation was simple and straightforward, remove factory unit (this requires some horse shoe shaped looking tools, which I borrowed) then plug up the wiring harness adapter, select the correct mounting bracket and slide it into place, slide in the new player and faceplate and that's it. About 35-40 minutes not hurrying.
