Where else but good ol' CF.net to come get your "go look it up in GOOGLE first, newb" response?

jk. Have you tried at least to do it yourself already? Please don't say you've already burned the power coupling on the harness...

I'll look up some stuff for you... all you have to do is buy the harness to go with the old model car, cut some wires, tape, and you're set.

I have googled it, and i went to ask.com and typed in "how to install car stero" or something, but nothing really explains it to me, the site just want to sell me harnesses and crap. My biggest problem is i dont really know how to get the steros out of the cars, at least the explorer

I think Crutchfield has a video and online PDF's showing you how to do it.

Good lord bigben, why don't you ever try to do something yourself. Do you want me to hold your hand?

You'll probably need a ford stereo removal tool.

Here. Merry Christmas.

Oh wait...it's an aftermarket stereo already...you might not need the DIN tool.

Make sure to disconnect the ground cable from your battery before you fry something.
