How did you remove the head unit im having troubles figuring it out

Thanks for covering all aspects, not just the most high level parts. I was stuck on how to connect it so that it would turn on when in reverse, and also the best way to run the wire down the length of the truck. You covered both ! Thanks!

Thanks for the great video. I installed a new stereo with backup camera last night on my 2000 F250 and your video was a big help. when I pulled the video cable up into the cab I pulled another wire at the same time and used that as my reverse trigger wire off of the reverse light positive to save getting into the fuse box - worked great and saved a step since I had to pull that light anyway for the power to the camera. I also pulled the dash to install the USB port in the dash in a blank spot. whole install was smooth and looks good. thanks for the great video!

Such an awesome video! I’ve wanted to put a backup cam on my f250 since my son likes to play outside a lot and I’m always worried when I’m parking in the driveway. Thank you for this!

Thanks so very much for you patience and for sharing to us how to install the radio and the camera Good job buddy 👍

This video just saved me a bunch of time with the black and pink wire. Thanks.

A heads up on backup camera install. If your camera comes with a wire (probably red) in the RCA Camera Cable. You tie that to the back trigger in the head unit. This avoids splicing into the fuse box.

Provo Beast Audio Installation how did you get that radio back out of the dash for the camera?

You’re the best dude thank you

My dude!!! Thanks!

Thank you for your awesome videos. Can the camera power wire be connected to the same trigger wire connection under the dash? The power/video harness for my camera is short and behind the head unit in the dash so it would be easy to connect it to the trigger wire. Would the voltage be lower than what is needed to power the camera than if it had been connected to the reverse light wire in back of the truck? Thanks.

I'd just run a line along with your video wire to the tail light and tap into the reverse lite + for that trigger signal.

I have a 2002 f250 with the same radio and I have a backup camera, it recently quit working but the radio goes to the camera screen in reverse but it's black. Any thoughts?

Question, once this double din with this metra kit is installed, how do you remove it? I have a pioneer with same install kit. I installed it today but cannot seem to get it to go back to where it’s flush. Now, I can’t pull it out either to adjust things behind to get a flush fit. Thank you.

IF it has already been replaced with an aftermarket radio, you have to remove the entire dash bezel around the radio / steering column to remove the radio.

Great video, but I have a question.....The aftermarket radio I bought and installed in my truck, is almost exactly the same as the one you installed in your preceeding video. The manufacturer quite pointedly says that the only way to get the radio out, post installation, is to remove the entire dash! You did not say if that is how you got your radio out, to do the backup camera install. So, exactly how did you get the radio out???? Or did you have some trick?

No, it would be a different install for a 1993 as the dash is different. Check with sonic exectonix install guide for help further.
