Radio
 
Does anyone know if the OEM radio cassette from a 95 Cherokee will fit
straight into a 95 Wrangler. They look identicle (at least on ebay).
The part # on the Cherokee ends in 7214 and ends in 7215 on the
Wrangler

Re: Radio
 
Yes, it will fit.

The radios are designed according to a standard called DIN, which I
conveniently forget what that means, and there is in reality only one
standard size. Go to any car stereo store and chech out how many different
sizes of radios are available. You will fine 1. The problem comes because
car makers screwed around for a couple of years with off-size radio/cassette
combinations. (I have a Mazda MPV that has a huge radio that I am having
difficulty replacing.) The after market radio people have finally gotten
most car makers to use a standard size radio so they can get their products
into your car without you needing to redesign the dashboard, or shim up a
huge hole with plastic plates.

The bottom line is, yes, you can swap the radio if you want.

The last digit change might be because the donor vehicle has a feature, like
an automatic antenna, that the TJ won't support.
