I’ve been wanting to upgrade my dad’s 04 Dakota and this is perfect!!!
Thanks. Thanks for watching and Hope it goes smoothly for you.
I recently purchased an 02 ram, and this video gave me some hope. Thanks.
Awesome, glad to be of assistance. Thanks for watching.
GREAT CONTENT.
FYI, here's a tip. When filming, you should shoot in a horizontal position, this will alleviate the blocks on each side of the video and will be full screen.
@Jimmy Rivano Thanks, was having trouble with the editing app and it wouldn’t work horizontally. Would make the vid like 1/4 screen. Thanks for watching and the compliment.

Been wanting to do this to my 03 Dakota. Nice walk through sir. I'm saving it for when I do mine.
Awesome, thanks for the compliment and for watching. Much appreciated.
Good job with the video. Much appreciated. I have a new double din Kenwood Excelon stereo on the way from Crutchfield and will be putting it in sometime over the next couple weeks. I was concerned about the dash modifications but it doesn't look too bad. Oscillating tool was a good idea. Looking forward to using the new stereo not only for music, but for the backup camera and navigation apps as well. I'm replacing a Pioneer single DIN that I put in several years back. It still works great but I really wanted a larger screen after driving some newer vehicles that have them. Another great mod for me was upgrading the door speakers. I bought Kickers and they are awesome for the money. I'm currently running an inexpensive license plate backup cam that is wired to an Edge gauge set. It sorta works but the screen is too small and grainy. Anxious to see it on the big screen.
Thanks for the Compliment! Much appreciated. I was concerned about the dash mod as well, but it’s very easy. I’ve been thinking of some new door speakers as well, so thanks for the advice on the brand! Thanks for watching
what backup camera would you recommend. I'm shopping around now. I bought a Excelon 907 and wanting to install it and the camera
Great video thanks 🙏
Thank you for watching
@@figsoutside1981 👍
Literally proceeds to not film the only difficult part.
Mine was overly simple if you’re talking about the wiring. Match red to red, purple with black line to purple with black line and so forth.
Would have been awesome if you went over the wiring. It’s not just connecting the colors together and all done. You may as well just showed a before and after.
Actually, on My Dodge, it was just simply connecting the colors together and there were a couple that had lines on them, but they connected to the same color wire with a line on it as well. Thanks for watching.
Most helpful vid on that install that I've seen
Thank You and thanks for watching. Appreciated.
Good lookin out brother. Very helpful
Boutta do mine appreciate it
Bro really thought we wouldn’t hear that fart at 4:34
Lol, even if I did slip one out, I’d have other issues if it came out sounding like it thumping a plastic bag🤔.
@@figsoutside1981 bahahahaha
Hahaha. Even had a pause to push it out.
you`re supposed to "melt" the panel studs to install it, hot glue will probably fail sooner or later.
Try Krazy Glue and baking soda for a more permanent fix
Dude. Good video. Well done thanks. What is the largest screen we can get into these older Rams?
Thank you for the compliment. I’m going to say this head unit is probably pretty dang close as to what will work. But I imagine as long as they make the front to fit and the unit will fit in the modified cubby, they could make something with a larger screen that will work..?
Thank you!!! Great video!
Thanks for the compliment and for watching.
Just bought all the material, sure hope it works.
It should. Mine is still holding strong even after getting bouncer and jarred around in the mountains week after week.
Great video bro!
Hey buddy, thanks man. Appreciate the compliment.
😊 my cd player factory radio will not read cd put in alpine cd next week wait parts get here😊
Nice abbreviated install. Did you have to cut the plastic on the top of the opening to get the radio to fit square to the front? Also, the rubber floor mats look underwhelming. Husky makes some floor mats that fit like a glove for these trucks.
Nope, didn’t have to cut any other piece. Thanks for the comment. Yeah, think I bought those floor mats in ‘07. Hahaha. I think they might even be old husky’s. Before they got into the molded mats. I should probably upgrade. Thanks for watching
I wonder if you can use like a cordless ryobi solder to cut out the deck.
You probably could but I don't know how bad the plastic fumes would be, you could probably also do it with a Dremel cutoff wheel
Great install! Have you had any time to scout the new area?
@cory8791 just a little bit the last time we went up there to take more stuff. I have a couple Awesome neighbors and one that took us around the area. It’s getting extremely hard to come back with each trip. Lol… can’t wait. So much more opportunities and less ridiculous laws.
Do you think any double din will fit? Thanks
Sorry man, not sure on that one. Maybe if you check out the dimension specs on this one and then compare to others?
Did you wire in your steering wheel controls I would like to do this with my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500
Similar kit on eBay is $20
Great vid though, thanks!
Where did you get the wire harness that clips right in with the old harness? pls lmk!
What antenna adapter did you use? I’m using a universal adapter and none of them fit, is there a trick to it?
I did not use the adapter.
I have a 2002 Dakota with the same head unit and air conditioner controls and I thought it was a single din for the longest time until I saw someone else take theirs out and apparently it's a din and a 1/2 even though it looks like a double din, Do you have any measurements you can give me?
@PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS sorry to reply so late, dimensions of the head unit or what’s under the cover piece? I believe most are actually din and 1/2. I’m pretty sure that’s what mine was too.
@@figsoutside1981 Yeah I was curious of the actual dimensions of the unit itself like as far as depth and all of that
Does the exact radio you installed support Android Auto while using the aux in
I have No idea. I’m an IPhone guy;)
@@figsoutside1981is it Apple CarPlay?
Did you have to connect the parking brake wire into the harness. will the radio work when not parked without it connected?
@jeon person To be honest, I’m not sure/don’t remember. I just hooked up whatever wires that were there. I don’t have any issues when parked or not. Sorry couldn’t help more.
@@figsoutside1981 All good man, thank you! And good video! 👍
Thanks and thanks for the compliment.
And does this work with the old infinity stock speakers and radio wiring etc?
@Dakota Larimer Yes, it works just fine. The Plug adapter came with the Dash kit and is color coded with very small labeling for what the wires connect too. I am not a stereo install wiring guy and it was very easy. I just connected the wires that were there. I don’t have any audio controls on my steering wheel.
Do any double din radios fit that are 6.2 inches? I’m looking for a radio that has apple CarPlay but I’m afraid it won’t fit on the double don install kit.
I’m pretty sure they will as long as the measurements match.
What size was this radio?? I have a 7” and it is not fitting.
@Richard E. Tarvin sorry for the late response. Are you talking about the depth or the screen size? The screen size is 6.2”. .
does the radio new radio come with that kit
If you’re asking about the install kit, no it doesn’t. The link is in the description to the installation kit. Thanks for watching and hope it helps.
How does the Radiohead work thinking of getting it wanna know if it works good
@Mason Gurney Thought I already responded, but guess I didn’t. Not showing up. Yes, the radiohead works good. The only complaint that I have is when listening to a CD, it takes a little longer than normal when switching back and forth between songs.
What speakers are you running on? Stocks or aftermarket
Just running the ol stockers.
Hooked mine up doesn't work any ideas??
@A1 hobbies :did you check the fuse? Also check the main power wire to see if it has power?
@@figsoutside1981 yes I checked the fuze that's on the stereo if that what u mean..also there's a ground wire from the stereo any idea where that goes..
There’s also a fuse in the fuse box I believe. Dang, I don’t remember if there’s a ground wire off the harness, but there should be.
Everyone says "hi GUYS!" lets get started "GUYS!?" hope that helped "GUYS!"
Cut out the "GUYS" talk 1 on 1 like a pro.
vid was helpful.
Bluetooth? I just got an 04
Yes, the player had bluetooth. Although I don’t use it. But I think my daughter used it. Actually, I have used it to connect to my cell and stream RUclips music.
@@figsoutside1981 awesome thank you. Do you have a link for the dash part?
It should be in the video description. ?
Will a Tesla screen fit ?
Honestly, I have no Idea.
Not so helpful , still missed showing some important steps 🙄
Maybe you should share with some comments? People do read them and it does help.
Still waiting on those "missed important steps"
Me too
@@figsoutside1981 haha thanks, I didn't miss any steps and I just did mine in my 03. Buddy must be struggling
There’s always, “That one guy🤪😂”
How does the Radiohead work thinking of getting it wanna know if it works good
@Mason Gurney The radio is working great. I’ve had 0 issues with it, even with all the dust that gets in my truck. Thanks for watching.
