  1. My wife bought a slightly used 2010 Edge Limited late last year. From the time she bought it she has wanted remote start, so I am planning to let Santa bring it. A call to tge dealer yielded a $650 quote for an aftermarket unit they get a local car stereo place to install. He had no idea Ford even offered a kit. There are several on eBay, but I'd like to be sure I get tge right one. I'm or sure of tge differences/advantages to a 100 or 200 series. Am I correct that the plug and play unit won't fit? The car has Sync, navigation, etc already from tge factory. I'll be installing this myself, and yes I'm a mechanic with good electrical skills. I just need a little guidance and until Santa arrives I am forced to research from my phone since my wife is sneaky and checks the history on the desktop. :-) thanks in advance.
  2. I am new to this forum but not the Ford Family. My girlfriend is looking at buying a newer vehicle and decided on an Edge (so it will not stick out in the yard with all the other Fords). She is pretty picky, so we have been scouring the net looking for cars all over. It has to be either red, copper, or charcoal gray, and must have heated leather seats. My question is, could someone give an overview of the Sync system? I understand its like GM's OnStar, but how do you know if the car has it and what years would be better. Right now we are looking at 07's and 08's to be in her price range. We found an 07 SEL Plus with navigation she really likes, but it is 150 miles away and I'd like to know all I can before going to look at it. Her other choice is 250 miles away... Whatever it takes for her to be happy with it. Also curious about the DVD players. I have seen a couple in the roof, but read here at some point they became available in the headrest. She'd rather have the DVD capability than a sunroof, but we have found ads don't always list whether one actually has one or not. Is there an easy way from interior pics or other features that would go with it? We have figured out how to tell memory seats, dual A/C controls, etc. I appreciate any help in advance. Tony
