Default Is there a difference between 00-02 and 03-05 radios?

Looking at purchasing a back up radio on Ebay. I noticed they list 00-02 and then 03-05 radios as different. Can anyone confirm this and if so- can a 03-05 radio work in a 00-02 car without any harness changes?

I believe that 00-02 radios are Bose, and 03-05 radios are Monsoon.

Eff Crutchfield man. They don't know what the Hell they are talking about most of the time. When I was talking to them ON THE PHONE they said Monsoon and rear door speakers didn't happen in Bonne'* until 03. I said ok fine, then how come when I pick I have an 03 with Monsoon I STILL don't get the option for rear door speakers? Retards.
