The only thing I can say is aftermarket, will have to research the subject on line. I know that in the 4th Gens, you could not change a factory radio to another factory radio. Example, if your truck came with the RA1 radio (AM/FM/Sat) you could not put in the RA4 higher end system. The truck was "coded" with the original one. 4th Gens had to seek out places such as Crutchfield and the like.

There is an entire thread devoted to upgrading OEM radios to other OEM radios.
