The radio in my 1987 Ram (Royal SE) is crap. Tape deck won't play without squealing, most buttons are broken etc. So I was thinking of installing a new one. My issue is I don't know if it is a 2 din size or a 1.5 din. It seems bigger than a standard (1 din) aftermarket radio but is it big enough to be a 2 din? Anyone installed a new/aftermarket radio? If so, what did you do? Install kit or did you find something that fit? Thanks

It's a 1.5 DIN radio. You'll just need an install kit and you'll be fine.

Got my install kit at Best Buy in 2007 - off the shelf. As Gen.1 Dodges are now 8 years further out of date, you may hafta go to a stereo specialty shop. Or fleabay.

Crutchfield.com is an awesome resource, even if you don't make your final purchase there.
