Hi Gene, I have a Ford Fusion and I got this Pioneer and had to get the harness adpter and the install kit. The radio works great as well as bluetooth. Took about 2 hours to install. Connecting harness to radio harness is time consuming part.

I am not sure about Ford excursion IF you have single din , you need to make it double din as this system is double din , and it mostly fits any car , install wise I did through car stereo shop. It is not that tough but you need basic car electronics knowledge.

You will likely need a $20 wire harness from anywhere, as most are not universal. What you see will likely come with it barring packaging issues.

Yep. I just installed on my 2000 Excursion. Will have to get a pig tail if you don't have one.

yes, it will fit your excursion. the grille is awesome. some minor flaws, but definitely worth the money. the installation is very simple, about 15 minutes or less. caution: REUSE THE BOTTOM CLIPS FROM THE OLD GRILLE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE NEW CLIPS THAT COME WITH THE NEW GRILLE. THE NEW CLIPS DO NOT FIT PROPERLY. THE OLD CLIPS WORK JUST FINE.

I have a Ford Expedition so not sure. What I did I had a friend help install mines. Where the door panel connects to the panel that matches up with the mirrors on the doors. We made a hole in the panel and ran the wires with the door speaker wires to make it easier to reach the deck.

I think you would have to build a custom mount adapter. It WOULD be worth the effort if you could use the large Ford towing mirrors with electric adjustment, heat, and integrated running and turn signal lights. However, those are running $300 to $400 in the aftermarket, so this will not be a cheap undertaking.The other alternative would be to get a remote backup camera and place that at the end of the trailer. Probably much cheaper in the long run.I love Amazon, but this is the type of vehicle-specific question which probably is better answered in one of the internet forums specifically for your vehicle. I would imagine this has already been answered in one of those.Good luck. I think you would have to build a custom mount adapter.

I'm sure it will. I had no problem mounting in my Nissan frontier which has depth issues. Because it has no CD player its half the depth of a CD unit. I just completed an 11 hour trip and had zero issues. This is a quality unit.

I have a 2004 Silverado and it just plugs in, it come with a bracket. You must buy the one with the harness for your make.

I put my on a ford excursion and it looks great. Measure first. This is a big rack and the first one I got was too small. Also make sure that back hatch opens if there is one.

In my 2008 Ford Fusion there was an additional wiring harness (from Amazon) that I had to solder into the replacement radio harness. Not hard if you have the experience and a good soldering iron.

Hey guys I have a Ford explorer 4wd xlt 2002 ...just want to know if this will fit And please tell me if this is a good quality as my original?

I installed this on my 07 silverado 4dr. For one you will probably have to install the box outside of the cab. This could be bad b/c it's out in the elements. Other then that be very careful when wiring it in. I only had about 1 inch of extra wire, so it was really close. wire everything down real lose encase you need to move or change/stretch things. Other then that I've had it for about 4 weeks now and it has been worst every penny.

Sorry, can't help you. I had the dealer install mine. They were running a special last year, $199.00 installed. So I'm assuming it's pretty easy to install.

No need to buy a special mounting kit. It comes with the metal bracket that fits into dash radio opening and wiring harness. Fyi bend as many tabs on the bracket to hold into dash, this will make a good tight fit and professional looking installation. Good luck take your time can't beat the unit for the price.

you would need a stereo mount kit due to smaller size of new radio,I would also get the wiring harness kit for electrical hookup!

My son put this on his 2005 Ford F150. It did not come with mounting brackets however, so make sure they come as a kit, as it cost over a $100 more for mounting kit.

Sorry I can't help you. Every vehicle is different. If you go to Best Buy and inquire into the stereo you are purchasing, they can tell you what hardware is necessary to install it. I had them install mine and they did a great job.
