2005 Explorer Sport Trac
Hello,
I would just like to introduce myself. My name is Vlad and this is my first time on this forum. So far I’m a huge fan of the site and I tend to spend a lot of time looking at everyone’s rides. I see a lot of interesting stuff here. I have a 2005 Ford Sport Trac that I have tinkered with for the past 7 years. It has been the most reliable vehicle I’ve had except for the some of the aftermarket parts I’ve put in it. I work for Crutchfield as a sales advisor and product specialist so if any of you guys need any help or have questions send me a message. If you are interested you can find more in my bio here:

Back seat, I found a Kicker 12" subwoofer enclosure that just slides under the seat. So if need to fold the seat down to get to back pocket, I can just slide it out.

Driver side rear pocket where I mounted the amps. Rockford Punch P300.1 for the sub and a Alpine MRA-F350 for the JL Audio C5 components.

Front speakers and I mounted the crossovers in the door pocket cause they have some adjustments for the tweeter and woofer. Easy to pop the cover off them then removing the door panel.

Outside, Back-up camera that I recessed in the bumper. I ran the satellite radio and GPS antenna up through the 3rd brake light.

Nice work, Vlad! :thumbsup:
 












Very nice rig you have there Vlad. Welcome to our forum:chug:
 


















I didn't see this til now, but Triton8273 is right. Pretty easy fit, we also give you our MasterSheet instruction guide to help you remove and install the radio. That JVC is nice, one of the few DVD headunits with a detachable screen. Great iPhone and iPod controls.

I did order it today I will post pics of the install as I do it and I decided to get everything from Crutchfield because they supply everything and that makes everything so much easier instead of ordering and waiting for each part to come in separately from different wendors thank you guys very much all been of great help
 






My time here has ended (at least for now) We finished our external forum project. It was fun talking and checking out everyone's rides. It was nice to meet everyone that I've had a chance to meet. You guys are awesome, friendly people and you made me feel welcome here. So long folks.

If you guys need help please give us call at 888-806-6848 or send us an e-mail at advisors@crutchfield.com or Chat with us on the link below.
