I bought the adapters. This radio is sweet for the money!

Yea, I'm addicted to toothpicks. I have one in at all times..

It was my way to quit smoking and now this is my vice.

That's exactly why I got it. $105 shipped from Crutchfield, included factory to aftermarket wiring harness, cd holder, and removal tools for the stock radio. Considering it has source tone memory, scrolling text, good fm reception, and basic black face...it was one of the best deals on a basic cd player I found with aux input capability.

The 25 X 4 RMS is awesome too. I'm amazed at how this deck can push my Infinity Kappa's!

That looks fantastic. I'm glad to see someone else with a newer Ford Truck on the forums. This gives me some good ideas for my explorer. Good work!

I was like, "let me get this straight: It sticks to the door and works wirelessly? I think I can do that myself, *****!"

I think it's worth it. Cheers.

That sounds awesome, I have a bronco2 that I'm doing all my mods to, it has power locks but no remote entry. I'm planning on getting a car alarm system that will allow me to have remote entry, any idea if this keypad remote will work with a car alarm's remote entry since mine doenst have one originally?

Looks awesome dude. Love all the mods. I a '99, and have the OH console, a custom center console which houses my carputer, 7" LCD molded into the bezel. I have a few pics of my truck at my website www.pepesranger.com.

I need more info on the Electronic temperature control though. PM me with the forum and maybe the thread that this John Griggs posts on about the controls. I'm a member of a few ranger forums too, just don't post much on them anymore.

Thanks,
Chris

dang. i have the 94 supercab, i wish i had the newerish dash, i dont have room to mount my lcd. any ideas on mounting? your guys installs look sick. a local stereo shop owner showed me his. he moved his hu behind his center vents, and cut a slit in the vents to insert cds, then moved his faceplate to his rearveiw mirror. very clean install.

the coolest thing is he managed to use his cig lighter for the volume knob.

lcds just look perfect in the newer dash.

Wow. That is...amazing. That console fits perfectly in there. My only complaint is the screen...I'd be worried about break-ins. Then again, that's the main reason I don't have anything in my car yet...there is absolutely no good place to put a screen in a Plymouth Voyager. Other than that, those are some mad mods. I just got in my overhead console I ordered a while ago and I need to figure out how to do the temperature thing. Great install.

A couple changes... I had a Lilli that went bad after 2 months so I ended up getting a Xenarc. Here is a pic of the Xenarc installed. I have a radio bezel and soon a Xenarc casing coming so I can mold them together..



I also got a 120* POV Rear view cam. I installed it in the hitch of my truck. I bought a silver hitch cover from autozone and drilled out a hole and mounted it in. Then I ran conduit under my truck to get the wire in the cab. Here are a couple pics of the install and some shots of the cam in action.











In use:
