Replacing or adding CD player or deck

How hard would it be to replace or add a CD player to a 78 F-250? It has factory am radio that still works, would like to switch it up to something a little more modern, nothing too fancy

Any suggestions or tips welcome, thanks!

Maybe if you when to the 73-79 web page those guys could tell you.

May be you did not notice the web page is the 67-72 bumps site.
With that being said don't know what your asking.

Ford did not offer a radio with an 8 track tape or cassette for F100/350's until 1980.

I purchased, an inexpensive (cheap$$) retro radio, off Evilbay, but made sure that I got one with adjustable width control *****. It mounted just like the old am radio. I don't believe that it is a high quality unit, and does not have very good reviews, but it has a MP3 player, and a USB port, and sound comes out of my speakers. With my old ears, that's all I need.
