Audio Systems: radio 1997 dodge ram, dodge ram 2500, infinity system


Question
I have a 1997 dodge Ram 2500 with the stock radio/casette player.  it is the infinity system.  I would like to replace it with a newer dodge radio/cd unit.  Can you tell me what newer dodge radios are interchangeable?

Answer
Here is a web site that will have some information useful in the event you plan to do the installation by yourself:

And, the best way to find radios that will fit is at crutchfield.com where you can plow through the "outfit your car" sequence.  Go to this page to start the search:

http://www.crutchfield.com/app/car/carselector.aspx?lp=%2fapp%2fCar%2fMyCar.aspx

Crutchfield has a very extensive data for hundreds of vehicles and they are the best in knowing what works and what fits and how to install the aftermarket radio models.

Best wishes.

PS: If you purchase from them they will supply the wiring harness adapter and installation instructions, but you can buy from any place you like.  It is  a free service they provide in selecting models that fit.
