so im changing my radio saturday and need to know if i need any special wires or anything of that nature. Im changing it from the double din to a single din radio. thank you!

 

I STRONGLY suggest you get a wiring kit. They are only around 10 dollars, and allow you to put the stock stuff back in if you sell it. The only other goofy thing you may run into is if it has a factory amp. Then you'll also need a bypass harness for that..... and let me tell you.... that is a JOY to get to. If I can find pics of mine, I'll post them.

 

So would these two work? I dont believe i have a factory amp tho, how would i know?

 

Here are a few pics. The PO hacked the harness all up, so I wound up repairing a lot of it.

The mount kit you posted is correct, the harness I'm not sure. What year is your truck?

This is where the amp is at.


Amp harness removed...


Here's the harness kit you're after.

 

My truck is an 2003

 

This is the 97/98 kit for sure.....

 

so the one i posted isnt for my 03

 

OK, then yes, I show that is correct for yours. However, I also show this one is needed. Not sure why they don't sell them together. I am thinking one is speakers, the other is power.

 

ah okay so both are needed then

 

Look what it says on Amazon.... looks like they all go together.
