i have an 04 ram and i just changed my radio out, and just know that if you have the steering wheel mounted radio controls that they will not work once you swap radios. but to each their own

The one that crutchfield shows is not the one for the infinity sound. I have to have the one that bypasses the factory amp.

Hemiyellow--- You can a lil box from Crutchfield that will let you still have your steering wheel controls with an aftermarket radio. I think its like 80 bucks.

I could be mistaken, but I believe the only way to bypass the factory amp is to run new speaker wire.

hmm, first i've heard of that. but i think i'd rather save my $80 and put it to use somewhere else instead of having steering wheel controls, not that big of an issue, and most aftermarket radios come with a remote anyways. quite a world we live in where we have remotes for our radios that are an arm reach away lol
