Aren't radios pretty much universal?? I would think
as long as the unit fits into place it should work...

I looked a round 4 some wiring diagrams with no much luck. I found the same harness works on both on a couple web sites, so I'm just going to take it all out and try it this weekend. The radio in the truck plays fine just none of the lights work any more. The guy I got my car from gave me all the stock parts for the car, so I got the mach unit not in use so what the hell c if it fits.

I don't know this for sure but it seems like it won't work with the wiring and all. I say this cause the Mach system is configured and wired to run amps and and a crossover. Don't know about your stang, but my car 8 speakers in it witch would be another possible problem. I'm not saying that its not possible, I'm sure it is with some rewireing work. Just my thoughts. Good luck with your swap and let us know how it comes out!

Well fuck, it works but it don't. The thing plugs right in and works fine, but the sound isn't close 2 good at all. It's like the bass and treb r way off even after I adjust them. Adjusting does change the sound a little so their isn't nothing wrong with the radio it just sounds like shit so I put the 1 out of it back in.
