Check out this link, they will tell you all the radios that will fit. You will need the different harness if you plan on keeping the door chimes and whatnot.

I got my harness from PAC for right around 100 bucks and is IMO the best one available.

Also, your airbags will work just fine without getting one of those modules.

air bag runs through most, or at least partially ;)

what radios do you guys got?

I have a Pioneer DEH-P880PRS. LOVE it. Simply an awesome headunit if you want to be able to adjust everything, especially if you ever want to do an active component setup.

who knows anything about this one? Boss BV8965B

Dbl_D718 10-23-2009 11:27 PM

I didn't even have to look it up. It's made by Boss...it's junk.

I would suggest looking at these brands, as they're usually recognized as being "good" companies in terms of headunits: Pioneer, Eclipse, Alpine, JVC, Kenwood, Panasonic, and Clarion. There are definitely other brands that would be ok too, just some suggestions off the top of my head.

thanks for the heads up
