Questions for putting in a CD head unit
The old tape deck quit playing tapes this week, and considering it quits putting out sound to the driver side speaker everytime I hit a bump, it's going. I want to install a new CD head unit. I realize I need to cut the dash, but my friend told me I'd also need an antenna adapter..... My truck is an '87 and I only found ones for an '88 and up GM product. Any tips for those who have upgraded?

Re: Questions for putting in a CD head unit
you don't need an antenna adapter...you can use your factory antenna cable...it would help greatly to get a 1 foot antenna extension...the stock antenna is just long enough to get in the radio if you squeeze and scratch your arm all to hell up under the dash...

Crutchfield sell's a mounting kit it will show you where to cut too.
