I have a 2001 Dakota Quad Cab. Can someone give me some advice on how to remove the stock sterio. I am going to upgrade and am looking for some advanced advice. How easy is it to remove.

just grab the dash in the radio area and pull the dash clips in, than there is 2 screw/bolts that hold the radio in it's like a 10-13mm than unplug

I know it's not real in depth but it's over a year since I replaced one

Clevite is right
It is about a fifteen minute job unless you are gonna jack with the wires.

depending on who you buy from they should have a sheet explaining the process in detail.
Crutchfield has a very good system of tech people who can answer all questions.

Good luck, and happy listening

The whole dash board is a big lego puzzle. Just pull gently and it all pops out.

It is a little hard to get that huge plastic piece of the dash to move, but once you get it started it just pops right off. The radio is very easy to get out, just two bolts and slides out. Definately get an adapter harness so you can plug right in to factory. It is a pain in the ass to mess with the factory wiring. Make sure you snap the big dash panel back tight at all clips or it will rattle like crazy.
