    Easy. If you call Crutchfield, they might have a plug and play harness for it. If they don't, it is very straightforward. You won't have a problem at all. Some features won't work though. So if you have sleeper controls for the stereo, they won't work. Because the new stereo obviously won't support that capability.

    I like the look of the midroof anthems. I just cant get over the 1980s space age futuristic interior they put in those rigs. Looks so cheesy. With flimsy plastic. I could only imagine it wouldnt take 2 jobsites to turn it into a rattle box

    Thanks in my regular truck its just the factory stereo . no bluetooth capability or anything just basic. I dont think any sleeper controls for it. But the 579 loaner truck, had a subwoofer in it. And now im wanting to upgrade my entire radio system in blue bird

    Yeah, my new deck is only like 1.5 inches deep and weights nothing...crazy. the old ones were like 6 inch deep and weighed more than a brick. They had to supported in the back. I wanted one with a big screen, so I didn't have to use my phone for pandora and what not....but I don't have the space. I have tweeters, mids and subs in my truck. I took the solobarics out for now though, because I build a cabinet in that space. So I have to find a new place to put them....I dunno yet. I have sleeper controls for my radio, but they don't work now with this unit. Owell, least of my worries....lol

    The mp8/d13 seem to have less issues compared to the isx from reading on here. On the older ones I know injector cups were a issue but I think they have that figured out now

    Well, the drama continues. I was greasing my truck and seen something that looked off. Those azzhats tore my wiring harness in half that goes to my moose pusher. So, I had to redo that. Then I r&r the front torque rod. When I was putting the new one back in, I slipped and faceplanted on the fifth wheel. Just douched in 5th wheel grease from elbows up. Also ruined my favorite hat. Good thing I don't have hair. Sucks
