The dash required a bit of trimming on the top and bottom in order for it to fit but wasn't too bad of a job. Removing the dash was simple - 2 screws and the rest were snap clips. I removed the original radio with the DIN tool and plan to put it in my Explorer which only has a single CD and no RDS capability. I used my Panasonic CQ-VD6503 which is a double din DVD unit with XM, etc. So - finally got my stereo installed and thought I'd share the results. Thanks for any input and/or advice you all can provide. I know the double din fits with a bit of trimming - does anyone have an install kit they recommend? Ideas on this one?

One option may be to run wires from the rear controls to the PAC unit and combine the steering wheel and rear control wires and use a single PAC unit. Looking at the wiring diagram it does not appear to have a video input unless you use the original RCA video/audio inputs - is that correct?įor the steering wheel controls and the rear controls - has anyone use the PAC SWIX control?

It has the factory DVD - I know there is a harness which provides RCA plugs for the system - but after searching quite a bit haven't found anyone who is actually using it. So - fairly simple for now but will be upgraded along the way. For now I mainly want the nicer headunit along with having the integrated XM capability and Ipod connectivity. My goal is to utilize the OEM speakers for now and eventually replace with different speakers along with separate subs in the rear doors. I'm curious on a few things and would love feedback: I have an existing Panasonic in-dash dual din DVD player I will move from my Mustang to the Ex. If all goes well I'll have an 03 EB 4x4 V10. Well - I've found my Ex and hope to finalize the deal tomorrow (6/17).
