People who are literate and educated talk like that. I guess I would have been more accepted if, instead of the words I used, I used "vagina, "piss off" and other profanities. Whoever is running this: please delete my account. I am starting to form bad writing habits and a negative outlook on life by reading these postings. I am sure you are all very cool, but it has escaped me. I will try to find some way to struggle on with my life without this forum. Best of luck to all of you, Ralphie Boy P.S. By the way, it's "God's Speed."

Obviously, I wasn't clear in my first message. I apologize for not explaining my position effectively. Hopefully I can explain it better now: I DON'T WANT TO TOUCH THE UNIT. 98% of success is knowing your limitations. There are many things that I do well in this world. This is not one of them.

My wife has a 2007 Ford Edge, with a D3 (with XM and Sirius and iPod) that was professionally installed. It works perfectly. We asked the professional installer to perform the "bypass" and they would not do it. I have read many posts saying that doing the "bypass" is a piece of cake and anyone who is breathing can do it. Well, I breathe regularly, but I do not want to screw up a perfect installation. I understand what needs to be done, but am unclear how to access the unit and do not want to take the chance of screwing things up. Go ahead, experts, all together now: Call me a wimp.
