So im new to the ford world as far as trucks go, just got my first f150 and i love it. But im having trouble putting my headunit in, i have taken the old one out 3 times now only to find out that i need another part. I finally got the right dash kit after 3 tries, and i have the power and remote acc. harness that does all the power but cant seem to the find theright one for the speaker outputs into the factory wiring. Anyone that has done this on a 98 let me know i cant find the harness anywhere.

i think i found it, it seems like it cause i hooke up my aftermarket using the harness and its working except there is 2 connectors that are just sitting behind the dash.

you need the first one from Metra 70-5511

There are 2 - 3 factory harness in the dash
The large rectangle harness is the main one needed.

If you have a factory sub then you need to use the small square one for that. (if your truck has this harness but it wasn't used before you will find it taped to the main harness, pull it off and then remove the unused female harness end which is plugged onto the harness and use the male side)

The small rectangle one is not used for aftermarket radios.
