  • This video shows how to remove a stock ford stereo with a simple and cheap hack! There also might be some trimming involved to get the new one in, but we're not afraid of that!
    The stereo I installed is a Dual XDVD276BT
    manual: www.dualav.com...
    Ford Stereo adapter 1998-2008:
    www.autozone.c...
    I've had it for the better part of a year now and it's not bad. The FM radio periodically comes in fuzzy. I don't know if the fault is the stereo or my van. There is also a long delay before it powers on, and if I turn the key too fast, t does not come on at all (also could be my van and not the unit).
    Overall it's decent enough for the price.
    Thanks for watching

    Another cool video! My last two trucks had fancy head units with no CD players! Really hard to listen to my old school cd collection of hair metal bands & punk rock without that little slot! My van with that factory CD player doesn’t work (it’s like I did something bad in a past life and the cd gods hate me now).
    We are gonna have to upgrade the stereo for the “adventure ready” van ASAP …..
    TOMBSTONE ….. one of the greatest of all time! Maybe we were separated at birth? Haha

      @Jbmongold  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Brother (possibly for real)! This head unit is pretty decent. Maybe if I could do it over I would do one with apple car play but I drew a hard line on the DVD player. I have Tombstone, Road House, and Point Break. If you want to watch something else you better find another ride you dig???

    Ahhh you make that look easy...except for the soldering. (Brought back tears when my husband gifted me with our first color TV in KIT form. Yes they did too make TV's in kits back in the 70's.) My question is do you have a recommendation for a new radio antenna? Ours was busted when we bought it a year ago. A 2001 Ford E350 that's got the spit-in image of your dash. If you can point me to an Antenna on Amazon most helpful. Thanks for such an easy to follow and grasp tutorial.

      Thanks for sharing the memories! I'm afraid mine is in bad shape too. Seems I just use the bluetooth audio more than radio anyway. After a quick search I found this one:

      You need to get an adaptor for which make or model you have ($8 at autozone). You will then wire the stereo pigtail to the adaptor pigtail, and then it all plugs right in.
