Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 01:20 PM

how do you get the radio out i cant figure out how to take off the plastic covers so i can pull it out and i dont want to break any thing by pulling on it.

HMUSN · September 16th, 2007, 01:23 PM

you mean taking off the bezel.. thats easy

just pull.

it won't break.

Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 01:25 PM

and it looks like i need a tool for the radio right

HMUSN · September 16th, 2007, 01:26 PM

yup.

or you could use a coat hanger.

that works too.

Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 01:28 PM

Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 01:39 PM

HMUSN · September 16th, 2007, 01:40 PM

Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 02:09 PM

ok i got my radio out but now i need to know what color wires are my front left and right positives and negatives, also where is the best place for me to run my remote wire from while using the stock radio to put in an amp and 2 12's

02ponypackage · September 16th, 2007, 03:25 PM

ur car came with the factory Mach system ?...plus what radio are u using now ?

02ponypackage · September 16th, 2007, 03:27 PM

My car didnt need the tool for the radio

then again it was the 6disc changer...was the cd/cassette but most fords do ive seen....

i didnt realize u were using ur stock radio again...ur better off getting a different radio...but if u car came with the Mach system...u will need to do a full re-wire when doing a new radio, amp, sub

itschristorres8 · September 16th, 2007, 11:52 PM

Blackbeauty v601 · September 16th, 2007, 11:54 PM

run it to a switch, then to power the switch run a wire to something that turns on when the car comes on...

EDIT: you really should just get a different deck too

02ponypackage · September 17th, 2007, 06:35 PM

yeah def. get a different deck

Blackbeauty v601 · September 17th, 2007, 10:04 PM

you know i want to get a new deck but im saving my money for something like this.... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1149040702125

modded232 · September 18th, 2007, 06:09 PM

the remote turn on wire for the amp will need to be attached to the blue wire (possibly blue with white stripe) that comes out of the back of your deck. It will be in a bundle of small wires. Follow where the wire goes to - on mine it was 2 feet long and had the attachment on the end of it for me to put my remote amp wire on it.

If the wire isn't blue i don't know what color it would be, but you shouldn't need a new deck.
