Navigation system for my freestar — AVIC411 Forum Archive

i have a 2004 freestar, i would like to replace my factory 6cd/radio with the new factory navigation system.

i found a few on ebay, those are out of new explorer, f150, mustang, edge.

would those be compatible with my van (plug and play) or do i need a special wiring harnes?

would those navigations systems have to be reprogrammed in any way?

if your talking about stock ford systems, no , they are not the same size face as an 04 ford. they also mount differently. its not going to work

Don't forget about the wiring. Good luck finding all that.

I just had the AVIC Z2 installed in my 04 Freestar and it looks great. Why not go that route instead? I replaced my single CD/cassette/AM-FM stereo, and it took the Circuit City guys less than the 2 hours they quoted me to install it. Furthermore, I've added the aux input cable to it since then, and it was easy to get in the dash to do that.
