well first of all dont get it from crutchfield. try etronics, ikesound, thezeb, or many other online retailers, i like ikesound, cus they gotta 1 year warranty w/out extra cost. but save urself some money i saved $62 on my reciver, compared to crutchfield. now is you car premium sound or not? if it is, theres an amp behind your glovebox, you have to buy that bypass wiring, if its not premium sound forget the bypass. if you dont have that amp to bypass, they all you have to do is go to wal-mart and get scocshe wiring harness, its as good as any (make sure it matches your car tho.) you just match up the colors on the reciever to the colors on the harness. Either disconnect your battery, or take out the fuse the radio. then plug the harness to the harness in your car, and slide that hu right in. make sure all wires are taped up good and completely covered, if not you'll fry a HU like i did. now reconnect your battery or fuse, and walaaaaah!!! finito
also you'll either need to buy the ford radio removal tool, or you can try to wing it with coat hangers.
