I'm lost... if it was the Ranger or any of my other vehicles I'd pick up a simple single DIN and be done with it as everything else is simple, this thing is more complicated any why not be fancier?
I have a '00 Explorer with a double DIN hole in the dash, an aftermarket Kenwood that won't even power up (single din, front and rear USB, etc) I checked and it is getting power and ground as well as key on power so it's just dead... I even took it apart and didn't see anything fried, and yes the fuse on the back is good... The EX is a limited but I don't think it has premium sound, there's been an amp connected at some point but all that's left is the wires going to the back seat.
Here's what I'm looking for:
-double DIN
-in dash navigation
-USB and AUX inputs, CD doesn't matter to me
-Android OS would be nice, but am open
-able to work with the steering wheel controls preferred, it looks like the PAC SWI-RC is going to be needed unless I'm mistaken
-Hopefully under $300 but am open...
Search engines don't work anymore and I'm way out of the loop, some Chinese stereos are enticing but don't know if they are ok. The steering wheel controls would be nice to retain but if it is a pain then I guess I can live without it...
Ok, I ended up writing a book again... I appreciate any help!
