DaimlerChrysler & Jeep Radios

DaimlerChrysler manufactures an incredibly wide variety of radios for their different vehicles, many of which look very similar and have the same sales codes, yet may have small differences in features. When replacing a factory radio with another factory radio, it may be important to try and find the correct model made for your Jeep. For example, some Chrysler radios have the clock display defeated in vehicles that have a separate clock in the dash. Also, due to preprogrammed audio equalization levels that are programmed into the vehicle’s body control module, if a signal from the radio is not recognized by the BCM (Body Control Module), the unit will default to a flat curve. Combined with various levels of speakers used from model year to model year, the sound quality of the audio can be reduced.

Mopar radio advantages vs other vehicle brands:
• Large radio makes controls easier to see and use
• “Perfect-fit mounting” eliminates squeaks and rattles
• Backlighting and vacuum fluorescent display match instrument panel exactly
• Electronically filtered to prevent damage to radio from voltage extremes and spikes
• Radio frequency emissions are kept at safe levels to avoid interference with vehicle electronic components

CD changer Mopar mounting bracket
This bracket was designed for the FM Modulated CD player kit that was released a few years ago. It will NOT work for direct mounting of the standard 10-disc factory changer since it is about 1/4″ too narrow. However, since the bracket fits into the same 4 body mounting holes it may be possible to re-drill the changer and other mounting holes to make it fit.
