Additionally, if you have a 1997 or older Ford/Lincoln/Mercury with a Double-DIN radio and side clips, you might be able to make this radio work for you with an adapter (not included). If your current radio has two long (@2") plugs that are roughly 1/2" wide, this adapter makes the radio plug and play for you.
*They changed the plug styles mid-year 1998. If you've got a 98, make sure yours has the same plugs as this one does. (See picture.) If not, you may need the adapter too.
**Some of the vehicles marked with ** may have some inner dash plastic that keeps the radio from sliding in all the way. This is not structural and can be easily removed with a dremel or other small cutting tool.
^ Some 1998-2000 Rangers, Explorers, Moutaineers and B-Series trucks have the Premium Sound system, which has different plugs. If you've got one of these vehicles of that vintage, please make sure yours has the right plugs before ordering.
^^ Some of the vehicles marked with this symbol had different plugs. If you've got one of these vehicles, make sure yours has the plugs pictured before ordering.
The 2002 and newer Explorers and Mountaineers have a different mounting system. They use bolt-on brackets at the bottom of the unit. If your current radio does NOT have two small holes at each side on the front of the radio, this radio is NOT the right one for you. Yours has the bottom brackets.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS
This does not have an aux input jack that you can plug an mp3 player into. MP3 playback is not the same as the capability to plug an mp3 player in. It simply means you can record songs on a CDR in mp3 format and this radio will play them. You can usually get 100 or more songs on a typical CDR in mp3 format, which gives mp3 radios a huge advantage over non-mp3 radios.
These radios do not work with all brands of CDRs. You may find that you have to burn using a certain brand disc. This is not a functional problem with the player. It's just how it is.
It may take quite a while for this player to recognize your mp3 format disc at first. It sometimes takes a minute or more. Once it starts playing it, however, you can easily track back and forth without any unusual delays. This does not qualify as a functional problem. It's just how this radio operates.

Example of plugs on the back of the radio.
