Go to crutchfield.com, type in the stereo model and see if the unit will fit into your car. It will most likely work with the iphone, you'll have to connect it to your receiver with the USB 2.0 adapter that came with the iphone. As for having full control of the iPhone, the receiver is setup in a way that only allows the HU to control the iphone. you won't be able to control it using the iphone, you'll have to use the HU instead. And i got it professionally installed, took a little over an hour and cost 97 bucks. Unless you really know what you're doing, i'd get it installed by a pro.

This unit can control an iphone via the iphone you just have to give the iphone control in the units properties. It is either one or the other. This head unit does charge the iphone but will prompt you to place it in airplane mode. You just click No and it works and charges. I own this unit and love it.

It does B. Weiss. My friend has the same unit and has it hooked up to his amplifier and subwoofer. Just make sure you have earplugs handy, the sound can be earth-shattering if you really crank it.

I have it working on my setup with an S4 4.2.2. It is installed on a 2006 Ford Explorer with factory NAV, however it is slow to connect at times, and other times it connects right away. When it does not connect at all I have to go through the inputs to find the device again. I use it for music streaming or a random call that might come in while i'm listening. It worked better with my Iphone 4 on IOS 6 as far as quick connecting. I would buy this again as I already had the Isimple base kit installed for my Iphone, and I didnt want to buy a new Stereo head unit. I just over look the quirks on connecting at times, and am happy to stream my music without wires.

This cable worked just fine with my 2011 A4. It connects to the audio (headphone) jack so it should work with any phone or mp3 player. I ended up switching to a different cable because this does not interface your music with the MMI screen and allow you to control the music through your car's controls. This is perfect if you want to control the music selection through your phone though.

I don't know. This was meant for BMW's that have the GPS and the extended Aux controller in the graphics of the BMW. This is needed for car control of the iPhone. I have an I phone 5 and needed another Apple adaptor for this work. But If you use the iphone directly and can play audio via the Audio Aux port it may work with no control. So you will need to have the USB and the Audio port close together. Good luck

It did work on my 2014 F150, however I did not find much difference in performance or mileage. My friend recommended the Superchips product and I tried it an it seemed to have better performance and increased MPGs. Just my experience take or leave it.

If you are looking for this product to work for a new iphone it will not. I ordered it for my iphone 5 but it's the old wide mouth connection for old iPhones and iPods. Beside that if you have the sub and aux next to each other it should work. Might want to hit up your car manual first to see.hope this helped

I have the ELM327 Wi-Fi Interface OBDII device. When plugged into the OBDII port in my Dodge Grand Caravan, a WIFI signal is detected on my iPhone 5s under the "Setting" - "Wi-Fi" menu called WiFiOBD. I select the WiFiOBD network, configure the password and then run the OBDII App on the iPhone. I use an app called "DashCommand" (cost $9.99) which works very well. There are other less expensive apps but DashCommand had good reviews. The ELM327 works well and I find it to be a good performance / troubleshooting tool for the car. Hope this helps ~ Tom

It's just a USB cable that is connected from the back instead of the front. But for the back it's a cable that's about a foot long. What I did is I purchased a Mounting Kit-FMK550 for 1995-2011 Ford/Lincoln/Mazda/Metcury. You get the one that works for you. And I used my utility nife to make hole in the back of the din that goes under the radio bigger and slipped the USB cable through there. Works great I can charge my phone and run pandora and I just plug it in and push the phone into the cubby/ din whatever you call it.

I have both the iPod mini & a pioneer deh-p5200hd. I use my iPod mini in my blazer because if something is going to be taken from my truck, I would rather they got my older iPod mini than my newer units. I wonder though why my iPod mini works with my pioneer P5200HD but yours will not? The message "NA USB " indicates that your unit & iPod mini are incompatible. From the owners manual of the Pioneer DEH-P5200HD troubleshooting section. Error message --N/A USB-- Cause : The USB storage device connected to is not supported by this unit. Action : Connect a USB Mass Storage Class compliant device. Cause : Not compatible USB device Action : Disconnect your device and replace it with a compatible USB storage device. Cause : Not compatible iPod Action : Disconnect your device and replace it with a compatible iPod. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DEH-P5200HD_OperationManual1006.pdf I enclosed a link where you can view the manual for the P5200HD.

Do they make this in 4 pin. On/off/auto? Looking to mount reverse lights that come on with factory lights but also have the option to have them not come on in reverse and switch on when every I want as an aux. Or does anyone have the recomendation on how to add a wire to this harness to make that work? Ridgid makes a harness for this but its almost $60 bucks. I already have a 4 pin switch.

Not sure. I have a Ford Escape that has a female jack on the dash. I bought a male/male jack cord from best buy and it works fine. I think the USB port is for charging device only.

If I understand the Sync system correctly, this would be most comparable to the basic Sync system with Nav, and it would replace it, not work with it. I guess the short answer to your question is probably not; if you have a Ford with any variant of Sync installed, this will at best add navigation, and you'll lose other functions such as Bluetooth audio.

I have the SAME issue, 3 cables coming out of the dash w/the same antenna on the window. My car is a 2007 and it's been there since I bought it in 2008. So not sure if it'll work w/the newer models. But wonder if it will w/older ones? Let me know if you find out! Thanks! (vice versa!)

Look at my post. The only thing that works is the radio. GPS lasted 3 weeks. Backup cam failed after days. No MPS, IPhone/Droid audio or video. No DVD/BlueRay worked. and it fully closes when turned off - and fully opens and "boots up" taking 15 seconds when you start the Ford and have already backed out of your spot and are going forward and in 2nd gear.

Do you have the same sort of plug in your glove compartment as this one with an iPod male plug? If yes, I have the same setup in my 2008 Audi A6 and it works well for me to connect to my Android via the headphone jack. Hope this helps.

You don't have to connect from the bumper to the cab .The system is wireless .You'd have to connect the sensors with the lights in the bumper and the display inside the cabin. It;d work in your F150
