Re: radio advise

How much do you want to spend ? Is a CD player a requirement ?

For some basic tunes with FM/AM radio and cassette, theres the Dual XC4100 that will fit in your dash with no mods. As a bonus it has an Aux input on the front for connecting an iPod or even a portable CD player.

Crutchfield used to give you the wiring adapter free if you buy your equipmnt from them.

Re: radio advise

When I ordered my stereo, they gave me a wiring adapter but it was not the correct one. My 78 and 77 both have a 3 pin connector and the speaker wiring is seperate. I'm not sure what the 80's trucks have, that provided adapter may work for them.
