Ok so I had the aftermarket radio stolen out of my truck, they broke the bracket that held it in snug so now its all loose.
I need one of those. Also they stole an adapter or something im guessing that you plug your aftermarket radio in? Because the wiring looks factory for sure. (Had an aftermarket stereo in it when I bought it, and idk shit about wiring one)

The truck is a 99 Dodge Ram
Am I in the right spot here? http://www.carid.com/1999-dodge-ram-stereo-installation/

Thanks in advance.

A headunit "radio", a wiring harness, and the plastic fitting "bracket" to hold the HU in place for mounting.
If you order from crutchfield.com and spend a certain amount, they send you these items free.

Go to MetraOnline and it will tell you what you need to buy! Then go buy it on SonicElectronix!
You ned a wire harness, I bet it's part number 70-1817. The "bracket" you are talking about is called a dash kit and I think you need a 99-6700 or 6500.
You might need an antenna adapter part no. 40-cr10 to make the AM/FM work but it's a 50/50 chance you won't.
