    Homelink Install

    I recently just purchased an overhead console off ebay, that had the homelink system in it. So I took out the front part of my console (Picture 1) , and replaced it with a homelink flap from the overhead console I ordered (Picture 2). Nonetheless, I thought there was going to be a harness clip...

    Location of Sirius DLP module on 2007 Eddie Bauer

    I have a 2006 X, do you think the Sirius Wire Harness is in there as well. I have the Audophile System w/ Navi? I wanted to get a Sirius Module off Ebay and just install it in there, but the ones I were looking at only had the sirius module and antenna, but not the wiring harness.

    Steering wheel audio control

    This is what I know about the steering wheel audio control (in order to get the switch light up and possibly have the steering wheel remote work). The good thing is that all the wiring is in place, the bad thing is that if you have a stock radio that was not programmed to have the steering...

    Suggestion on Power Antenna on 12 Volt and Ground Tap

    I removed the center console and bezel, and found the wires to my Front 12 V Cigar Adapter. I used a Voltage tester to see which one of the wires was the 12 V (The red wire on the 06 Model) and I stripped about 2 cm of the wire and connected my 12 V wire from my hidden antenna. I then crimped...

    PXDX2 Add-On Aux Output on 06 Explorer w/ Nav

    Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone has used the peripheral PXDX2 AUX Add-ON for the 06 models with the Navigation system. I know that it will definitely work with the CD/MP3, and CD6/MP3 players, but I was wondering if it would work the stock navigation?

    Opinions on Wind Deflectors on the 06/07 Model!!!

    They went on today, the in-channels look awesome, and got them cheap on ebay, not so windy, and I love the fact that I can air out the car now since its the summer :)

    Hidden, Amplified, Antenna for 06 Explorer?!?

    Just finished, I put it under my glove compartment, and used a screw as a ground and tapped into the 12V by the front cigar lighter. Nonetheless, All the wires are hidden behind the center console and glove compartment, its pretty much invisible and makes the 4th gen look much cleaner without...

    Suggestion on Power Antenna on 12 Volt and Ground Tap

    I have just purchased the hidden, powered, amplified antenna from crutchfield. I was thinking of placing it either right against the window and the dash or under the dash by the glove compartment (both valid options according to crutchfield). Due to the fact that I need 12 V Power, does anybody...

    Adding Sirius

    Thanks for the In-depth post, I might just end up going with the new stiletto sirius portable receiver, and purchasing the 06/07 specific mount (http://www.cellularmount.com/order/itemdetail.asp?ID=3113) This might provide the most bang for my buck out of usefulness for sirius radio.

    Adding Sirius

    I just purchased the sirius receiver and I have the nav already. How did you remove the kickpanel by the passenger side, and how did you get the harness all the way to the radio? Also, what did you end up doing for the Satellite Antenna? Thanks, any help would be appreciated?

    Problem With 06/07 Nav Unit, Need Help!

    75, not bad at all, since Ford was asking about $200 for me to do it.

    Problem With 06/07 Nav Unit, Need Help!

    I just went to Dominic at ARC in Boston. He told me the reason that my nav system was not displaying time, was because it was originally programmed for a 2008 Ford Escape. Nonetheless, He programmed it for 2006 Explorers with Navigation and Audiophile Subwoofer package. He also put the option...

    Opinions on Wind Deflectors on the 06/07 Model!!!

    I was wondering what people thought about wind deflectors on the 4th generations. I like the fact that it lets me crack my windows for fresh air during bad weather and reduces sound, but do you think it makes the Explorer look cheap and tacky?!?

    Chrome Additions on the '06+

    X-DEACON... What type of weather did you put them on in, did you get a carwash before doing so, and did you have to buy extra 3M tape to get them on? Thanks!! :)

    06 XLT Trim Fading!!!! Suggestions Needed!

    Thanks that was an excellent response, I think I am going to go with Mothers Back to Black. Should I wait till its warmer outside (I'm in Boston), or does it not matter. Just wondering from experience, because I know what is always on the in the directions is not the best idea.

    Chrome Additions on the '06+

    Hey, I just bought the handles, and I was looking at the mirrors. Do they cover only the top half of the mirror like in the 06 Limiteds, or do they cover the whole thing, so it would cover up my puddle lights?
