84 ranger am/fm swap for radio + tape deck

hi all —

bought an ‘84 ranger, very new to car restoration and repair but looking to learn — great car, most everything works, but it’s got a straight am/fm radio that looks like someone swapped in in place of the original radio/tape deck. i actually have a lot of cassettes i’d love to actually play, so i found a replacement radio/tape deck online, but i can’t seem to get ahold of a wiring diagram to figure out how to wire it in properly. anyone happen to have the wiring diagram?

(and since i’m also replacing the shot speakers, generally any advice on audio repairs in this truck?)

thanks!

thanks! following the power/ground wiring alright in these diagrams (I think), but my truck doesn't have door speakers or rear speakers, just two in the dash? not seeing those indicated anywhere
