No. Dodge Ram 2500. I originally put this double din in the guy's 05(I think?) Charger R/T. Huge pain in my dick. Froze my ass off putting it in. Well a few months later his wife wants it out. Ok, not a big deal. I got paid like $100 to put it in so 2 minutes to take it out and swap the stocker in was no big deal. So now the guy wants me to put it in his Ram 2500. So I get the bezel off (another pain in my ass) and take out the stock headunit and of course there's no room for it. Obviously it's going to need some trimming. So I wire up the harness that bypasses the stock amp and of course it doesn't work. Triple check all my wiring and everything's fine but it STILL doesn't work. Not to mention the shit load of trimming that's going to have to be done and the fact that it's going to look like complete shit when I get it installed. PLUS I still have to figure out what wiring harness I need to hook it up cause the one that I have doesn't work. Soooooo FUCK Chrysler and all their vehicles. They can suck my dick. AND on top of that, the guy keeps nagging me to get it installed and I keep telling him that I'm trying to figure out how to do it because I'm not sure of all the parts he'll need for it to work. Why the fuck can't it be easy like Ford? It took me 20 minutes to hook up my double din. That's including the time it took me to trim my bezel. Hell it took more time to route all my wires than anything else.

Are you missing switch power or constant power?

I got this old ZR amp that Ive been using until I can afford a new system. Well its been acting up. The SWX seems loose and it keeps cutting out on one side or the other unless I push it in. So I took it apart and tightened the thing it plugs into and it worked great...For about 5 minutes, before it quit all together. So I called my buddy to see if he had a cheap amp I could get off him and pay him when I get paid. He said he had an amp I could have...Just gotta get it fixed, which shouldnt be more than $50.

Check the way you wired that harness, then meter it and figure out which power source you lack. I can't remember which source those trucks don't give you.. I want to say it's switch power... If you need to look at a wire color spec sheet, hit me up on bbm and let me know. I'll email you the dodge direct diagram.
