New radio instal

Installing a new radio... any ideas what the brown wire is?
Best I can find it’s the dimmer wire that new units don’t use. That seem right??

Since your truck is an 87, I assume it came with the digital radio.
That's the constant power for memory when the ignition is off.

Thanks! I think I got it. Works like a charm

That stereo looks vaguely familiar. It sure helped having the OEM radio when setting up the shafts on the new radio.

Nice job! Wish I would have done that instead of cutting my dash to fit an NOS Alpine DIN radio that I had laying around. It was a real PITA, but at least it turned out well.
