I put the stock radio from my truck, which is a 99, into my dads truck which is a 95. I think a 94-02 (2500 & 3500) radio is all the same size, cg size I believe is what its called, with the same hook ups in the back. My radio was a cd and tape. so maybe they came in the 98+ trucks.

If you have steering wheel controls for your radio it has to come out of a 1997 or newer. If not 1994 -2001 or 2002 2500-3500 will work

Ok first off the CD/tape will not just drop in. You have to have the infinty system in your truck already.. The Door speakers have amps on them.

But the Question is do you have the infinity CD player in your truck? If so shoot me a pic of it. I have what you want in my 02 I just bought. Maybe we can swap. No promises. There were a couple different CD players in 02

Its a bad picture but all I got at the moment. But thats it

Sometimes you can take the amps from the door speakers & fit them to another speaker.
