Homelink Visor

[jgauthier]

Hey All,

I've seen, and read, and ton of posts about adding homelink. I have a 2007 Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Explorer. I would like to add this to my visor. I found some modification step that I can most likely perform here:

Here's my concern. I feel my visor, and I don't feel any indents where the square area might be for the mount. I don't mind getting in there, but I don't want to do it for nothing. Does anyone know if this vehicle visor will have that area for mounting a homelike device?

Thanks!

thinking head liner would be better

Or buy a used overhead console that already has the Homelink buttons built in. Here's an example:

Maybe you don't have the sunroof/rear air options but who cares? I did something like this on my '02 and it worked great. Just replaced the whole thing. Plug and play.

That overhead console is great. I didn't realize they made those. I was looking at the 50-GENK40A Mirror, but it's $200. I do have a sunroof and rear heating, so that device would definitely work. I'm a little concerned about the color. Mine is "camel", I think. That looks pretty close.

I added a Homelink rear view mirror.

Yes, I believe it to be the camel color. I have the same interior.
