Cool Wired or Not

I bought a 1986 f150 that did not come out with any factory radio. How can i tell if the wires needed to put a radio in were still installed at the factory?

Thanks for any help

There should be plug in connectors directly behind where the radio/cassette would be.

The main harness 14401 inlcudes these connectors on every truck.

Cool

Thanks so much for the help. I looked around inside the dash and found the connectors. when i hooked them up however, i was getting a humming sound from the speakers. It only happens when the engine is running, and as the engine goes faster the sound gets louder. Any advice

thanks
