I don't know hardly anything about this but I have a 2013 Chevrolet work truck. The radio sucks and I cant even hook my phone up to it. I was told its cheaper to order from Amazon and get an aftermarket radio, amp and speaker and bring it somewhere to get it installed rather than buy the products they sell.

So, im looking for recommendations for a radio that has FM and I can plug my phone into it

Wouldn't mind having a little bump. maybe a tube under the back seat ( if they fit)

This stuff is actually really easy to do on your own. People are just hesitant because of the "unknown" factor. You take it apart, and put it back together. Pretty hard to screw up. Especially with all the guides you can find online. I suggest not bringing it to anyone to do.

When I bought my car, I bought a head unit from: https://www.sonicelectronix.com
This was years ago. But I got an eclipse $1000 in dash screen for 450. They had a "new model" just released and were trying to get rid of the older one.

Check the site out.

I also suggest getting one with a cable that connects to the bsck of the unit and can plug into your phone. The audio will be clearer.

ETA: you'll need the accompanying wire harness. There will be a specific one for the head unit that matches to your vehicle.

I forgot to mention...get a double din sized one if it fits.

I used to think they were all hideous, but they have come a long way and look better installed.

The other option...tablet install.
