Thanks!!! I got the floor mats from Classic Parts, kinda pricey but I wanted something that matched and looked correct.
They come in all the interior colors, this is the dk blue, mine is the light blue :

The stereo is a slide bar radio, so it looks original and then you can slide the bar over to reveal a digital read out behind.

It has AUX and USB and I also bought the BLUKIT which makes it blutooth.
It does the job, probably not super quality but not bad...I think all the choices are kinda the same quality with the exception of one brand I've seen that looks really original and is like $600!!! I forgot the brand.... I haven't had any problems with it....It always works when I turn it on....I had an original AM only radio that wasn't working when I bought the truck and the antenna was deleted by a previous owner and the antenna hole was filled in on the cowl. I bought a universal hide away antenna and it works great even while hidden under the dash for the FM stations, but I can't get any AM stations to come through unless I hold it up up near the head liner LOL....so I just use my IheartRadio app on my phone and go through Blutooth to listen to my local AM stations if needed.
Im not sorry I bought it, but I might have saved up to get the $600 unit, although I think it doesn't have blutooth which is an absolute must for me!!
