Thank you for the kind comment. I'm sure your wife will LOVE it. It brings a new driving experience to my car. Thanks again!

I installed it in a 2013 Ford Escape, works perfectly. 7mm socket, T25s. Reposition the wiring harness first referring to where the screen slots in. I placed it next to the right air vent, maneuvering it in the back around the plastic piece containing the old radio. I did the 6gb of ram model, seems to be a bit faster than shown.

WOOHOO!! Thanks for your comment and I'm so glad that you are having a good experience with this unit as I am. It's like having a new car! Congrats!

Thanks Matt! Next question where should I buy or even find for my 2014 Escape? I’m ready to buy but my current head unit says SONY & your control panel is different from mine. I’d love to give the Amazon tip $ but…. Also, loved your engine air filter replacement video. I’ll be doing that first 😊. Look forward to more videos

HI, I am in the uk and have a 2015 Kuga i have just done a test fitting of the same unit, did you connect the key wires the position 1 and 2, so you can still switch the unit on when the car is switched off, thanks for putting the video on it's as a masive help Regards Kev

Hey bro, excellent video and I definitely subscribed for the future. One question I have is - I am currently driving a 2015 Escape SE 1.6 Eco - is that the same model shown in the video? I am very much thinking about changing out my head unit due to the small screen, and this might be the best tutorial and example I’ve ever seen. Thanks for the content!

There are two USB plugs that are plugged into the line of ports (See video at 4:43). I decided not to use them, but that is something that you can decide if you want them. I hope this helps. If you decide to use them, you could feed the line down into the glove box if you desire. Good luck!

Hey, thanks. I'm not sure about the factory microphone, so I added the one that was included just in case. Works perfectly!

Good video, I have that same radio but I have problems when I make or receive a call from my cell phone, connected to the radio through Bluetooth, the person calling me tells me that it sounds very soft and with an echo... I put the external microphone on it and anyway the same thing happens...do you have any idea what happens?...thank you

Do you know if the sync module still needs to be working for this to work? I my 2015 escape the Bluetooth no longer works, only the radio works. Did you also use the camera that the unit comes with or did the OEM camera work for you?

Nice video....How were you able to configure the steering wheel buttons on that Ford Escape?...I installed an identical one but I have not been able to configure that option...can you help me?

Hello all. I have received many technical questions/concerns about this product and how to get it to work for various people. Unfortunately, I do not have all of the answers, but I do have some suggestions. If there is something that is not working out for you, please remember that the seller has a 30 day return policy so if you need to return the item, you can. Another option is to contact Amazon and they may have some suggestions on how to make the head unit work, or will be able to put you in touch with some technical help so you do not have to bother with returning the product. I am still very happy with my new head unit, and I hope that you can enjoy the same features that I do with this item.

Honestly, this video was not nearly as helpful as it could have been. You barely show anything and even skip a few steps. If there is a setting you need to change you shouldn't leave that out and just say "oh I forget what it is". To those that need some more detail- I just installed this in my wife's 2014 Ford Escape. After connecting everything, you have to go into the factory settings to get the factory back up camera to work and the dashboard dial/buttons, and steering wheel controls to actually work. For steering wheel controls and radio buttons. Go to Settings > Factory Settings > enter in the code 1234 and hit ok > go to CAN Settings > enter in the make and model, if it only gives you one year option select it (even if it's not your cars exact year) > enter the CFG in (I set mime to LOW) > Enter in the protocol (it only gave me the option RISE) > save the Settings and let it reboot. This should let your steering wheel and radio push buttons and dial work for audio control and other things. It took me a bit to figure this stuff out, but I'm an electrical engineer and have worked on automotive industrial applications for years. Most people don't know what a CAN Bus is and it comes disabled by default. You really should have taken more time to show what you did to connect everything and explain it better. Could hardly see anything you were doing.
