In todays video we will be installing a double din stereo in a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500. We will be using an installation kit from Metra, a $60 eBay touch screen head unit with a backup camera, and installing a Sound Storm 10 inch LowPro amp/sub. If you have any question, feel free to ask in the comment section below!

I know some people don’t like that body style Ram but it’s one of my favorites. Especially ones that are in good condition like yours.

@RealSteelFabrications Год назад

They’re good looking trucks

Just bought my 2nd, 2nd gen ram. My biggest gripe with the the 2nd gen was lack of crew cab, and the radio... among all the other 2nd gen stuff. Definitely will be doing this

@JustMe-qh9ib Год назад

I appreciate that you linked the radio installation kit. I had a very nice radio gifted to me that I wanted to use but had no way of fitting it in my truck. Thanks

@RealSteelFabrications Год назад

No problem, glad to help!

@Ron-FabandBuild 11 месяцев назад

Appreciate the contribution on the video. You Have answered many of the questions that I had. Seeing that I have completely replaced my entire dash with a custom built wooden dash that I built for my 98 and installed in 2007. My install will be a bit different. Thanks again for all the points on the install.

@dominickgambale3682 6 месяцев назад

What did you do to make the radio fit with the hold downs that can with the black bezel peace, I’m trying to install mine can’t get it to fit

@tomasrubio1918 2 года назад

Clean truck bro , just bought a 97 with 91k miles one owner .!!!!! All stock 2wd same interior as yours !

@RealSteelFabrications 2 года назад

Thanks! That’s awesome, sounds like a good one.

@brandoncarroll5771 6 месяцев назад

Got my 96 5.2 sport magnum about 2-3 years ago, I'm third owner, and it kinda seemed like the perfect fit, seeing as the numerology was it had as many miles as the year I was born 92k just broke 136 recently... But uhh the main reason for the reply is I had ordered everything on your list, but the radio didn't come with the back plug in not the adapter but the part that plugs the adapter into the radio

I got the trim kit based on your video. The fitment issues are not the head units fault. The trim kit is slightly to small. I've tried a few double dins and they are all slightly to small.

@hobsonbeeman7529 Год назад

That actually looks pretty factory! I’m installing an Eonon E39 unit in my 97 Ram Laramie, there was some surgery. But I had to install a replacement dash sub core and new dash panel, but the cutting of dash the bezel is about the same

Turned out good for aftermarket

I have a 99 Dodge Ram when you were cutting your dash I thought ohno but the end result looks good, did you also change out the speakers? My truck came with Infinity radio cd cassette.

Do your steering wheel buttons work on the new radio? Did you have to do any extra wiring for it? You didn’t show the wiring for the radio

it does not have controls for the steering wheel

Hey bro. How many inches is that screen? I'm looking to run a 9 inch in my 97.

@Justin28082 2 года назад

I guess no one has had issues with the dash busting up because that support was removed? The top of my dash is all new, but I was just noticing that the support that gets cutout looks pretty important. :-|

@richardbates2367 5 месяцев назад

Have you had people get ahold of you about the stereo you pulled out of the truck...i asked because there's a guy on RU-vid that has tried 3 different times to get a am fm CD player cassette tape player stereo but with a aux in installed in the front of the face of the stereo but he kept having issues with them,i think it's a mid 80's dodge truck i think his name is Jason anyway if you want to sell it you might consider getting ahold of him...

Will that kit work for a 1998 also?

As long as you have the same dash, I do not remember if they changed in 1998 or 1999.

This wouldn't work on a 12 valve cummins, reusing the existing screw holes, cutting an already 25+ yr old lower dash, no reinforcement, no way that dash is going to support it for much longer, just my 2 cents

@garyjohnson801 2 года назад

Sorry but you and alot of other people are wrong. That is a 3rd generation a 1st Gen is from 1974 to 1980 and 2nd Gen is from 1981 to 1993 in the USA and 1995 in Canada and so that puts your truck a 3rd Gen. And I know this because I have worked on them since they were new all generation up until this last one because it came out after I retired. So stop listening to what others are calling them
