I was wondering but have never tried it. Mind you I never use the radio either. I just listen to 8 . 3 litres
Need clarity on where the other 5 CD's go before I f**k it

The Pioneer The OEM Doesn't look like it would hold anymore than 1 CD

Gotcha. Definitely different. In dash 6 CD (for those years) looks like this:

I was never enamored with any of the factory head units of that vintage. First step in the right direction back in 2005 was getting the one that was capable of playing MP3 CD's and was sat radio capable (I rigged up a sat radio adapter with an RCA to headphone jack cord). Best jump was getting the plug & play Android radio (pricey but worth it).

Not export. It was made for Mesquite TX sold in Dallas. It has a TX map and a rams head embossed on front of plastic bed liner. A private buyer then bought it with approx 5000 miles on it and shipped to NZ. Stereo in it was same as 03 Jeep I had. When I bought it had a different head unit a Pioneer and the OEM was in a box. I have since put the OEM back in. I am not sure about the amp under the seat. It is out at the moment a JBL GT5. There is a plug in the centre console, don't know what was there. At some stage the engine died as it had a 2005 engine. Now that has died and still only 79000 miles. I thought the whole point of a large capacity basic engine was reliability. It has been the opposite. A true example of an engine destroyed by mass production atrocities to appease the greens. NO MORE!!!! Brand new block, forged internals, Striker Heads and all the good gear in between. No more Mr Nice Guy. It will never let me down again!!!

Ha! TX down under. I've often thought about getting an 06 RC and dropping in the later 8.4 (640 stock).
 
Funny thing is the build sheet says 6 CDs
Maybe mine is not original but out of a Jeep Liberty (Cherokee)
However it did plug straight in and the steering wheel controls work too
 
Your truck is an early build maybe they were still using up parts or something - who knows lol

It's definitely in the process. I purchased a 2005 engine off the sports car back in August of 2023 once I stepped foot in this great dairy state of Wisconsin. I've only hoisted the engine to an engine stand on Halloween day 2024 LOL. Honestly, I just don't have the time at the moment and actively looking for a bonified mechanic nearest to me to help with the swap. I am aware of the oil pan + sump that need swapping, as well as the manifolds, water outlet? throttle body linkage? and motor mounts. I believe Wifey listed various shops on here for members looking for parts and possibly services too. I will post more updated photos of the truck in its current state on the proper channels while receiving help from this great community.

Here's that parts for our trucks Thread ....

Parts for our trucks

I ran across this site that looks like a used parts source for the 1500 not specifically SRT10 but some can interchange Maybe we could put parts sites we find or know of in one thread since parts are getting harder to source as the beasts are becoming vintage...
