My buddy recently got a mint 84 S10 with the 1.5 din radio. AM radio.
I gave him an amfm tape unit but the plugs are different. What application uses the plugs on his radio? (top radio). Another S10?

Top radio is for the newer GM style (about '86) plugs. There are adapter harnesses for putting newer radios in rides with the older style plugs. I have it my '81. FYI, it'll use a smaller diameter antenna cable.

The top radio was from an 84 s10 that's all original. And it's an AM radio. Didnt even know they still made am only radios after the switch to 1.5 din.

My 87 Monte Carlo has the plug like your S10 did. I replaced the radio with a newer unit (from a Silverado) like that had a plug like your newer one. Metra makes an adapter for about $10 on Amazon that makes the switch plug and play. I also had to get an adapter for the antenna. Being that there was only an AM radio in the S10 you might have to add an FM antenna.
