I really wish I went with the standard double din size instead of the 10.1 inch…my screen is loose around the edges and install wasn’t nearly as straight foward….I’m happy with the sound quality but the screen bubbling on the edges is annoying especially since I paid $400 on the unit….oh well what do you do..
Please where can i conect the cable reverse+ my is yellow thanks 🙏
I had to trim the side lips on my 2002 to get it to fit with the metra kit. How do you like the radio so far?

Oof. Guys, if you take the dash plate off, install the radio, then snap the dash on over it, it fits perfectly with no cutting

Did you have to ground the radio to the parking brake to get to use it while driving? If so what did you wire it to I have heard just ground it to normal ground but didn’t know if this brand allows that or not. Thank you

I don’t have a programmer. The radio is an atoto from Amazon. It uses a Bluetooth obd2 adapter and the torque pro app is what displays the gauges
Did you have to do any additional wiring to monitor the coolant and transmission temps?

No but you do have to find the ford plugins in the app itself. It'll have all the 6.0 specific sensors

I did the swap in my excursion, I lost the ability to control the volume on my rear oem DVD player. The wiring harness has 2 steering wheel volume control wires, should I wire them both in and if so where? I repinned a harness for the DVD player.
