I really like the look of the new radios in the 06 and up trucks, with the Aux input. Have any of you guys adapted these radios to work in your 03-05 trucks?... JOIN NOW TO REMOVE TRACER

I don't know the exact differences or even if it is possible but they are quite different. The 2005 is the last year of the older style, while 2006 went to the CAN BUS style I believe.

The biggest hurdle would be finding a bezel that works on the 05. Complete revamp of dash layout for 06.

they will not fit in the dash, and the 06 up radios are prone to all kinds of faliure, if you want aux input i recomend aftermarket.

it will work...i got a 6 disc from an 08 in my 96...it just requires the trimmin and customizing of the bezel and a chrysler wiring harness that is $20 from the dealership...it is just a caravan radio wiring adapter...i will post the part number you will need later when i find it...the only thing that wont work is the back light for the buttons will be on the whole time i havent figured that out yet cuz i got distracted figuring out how to put a mygig in my truck and almost got it
