1988 323 BF Radio install?

Hey there. I have a 1988 Mazda 323 DX (no radio, but has an antenna?) just bought it and am wondering if i’m able to do a double din install (single works too) and if there’s an install kit available? thanks!

Welcome to the forum

I just looked on the WWW found lots of info these samples are only 2 of many

Installing a double-DIN stereo in a 1988 Mazda 323
requires an installation kit to make it fit, and some modifications may be necessary as the factory opening is not designed for a double-DIN unit. The process involves removing the old radio, wiring the new unit to the factory harness using a Metra kit and plug-and-play harness, and physically securing the new stereo in place. Be aware of potential wiring complexities, especially with the illumination circuit.
