Guys, thanks for all the input, I really appreciate it. Ed

Thanks for the details. I'll look into Pioneer units. I had one in my 2007 Edge but it didn't have RDS.

Yes, that string is attached. I don't think it's there to keep the door in place, it looks more like a damper for a smooth opening.

Hi, I'd like to replace the original radio (the one with a 6 CD changer) in my 2009 Edge with a more modern screen unit. I have searched the net and there are literally hundreds of units available. The thing is, I don't need most of the stuff they offer. I don't need nav, no sirius, no dvd, not even touch screen. I just need a decent RDS fm and a single CD player and a not too small font on the screen is important, not those segment-type letters that my current radio displays. Also, the steering wheel controls should work too. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ed

Hi, The glove compartment door on my 2009 Edge pops open all the time. I have checked and it seems to sit correctly in its hinges. Is there any kind of adjustment I can do? Thanks, Ed

OK, thanks!

Hi, I read somewhere that the 2009 Edge Ltd had a gas tank recall? Is that true? Thanks, Ed

I just checked the underside of the hood and there doesn't seem to be enough metal to screw the deflector on. There are some elongated holes toward the center of the front edge of the hood but no holes at the left or right ends. Of course, I don't have that deflector yet so I have no idea how this thing looks on the underside, if there's enough plastic to drill holes in the first place. And I agree with you, I would not rely on an 'adhesive only' install. Thanks for your input, chefduane.

ChefDuane, I just read the installation instructions and it says "Do not use automatic "brush-style" car washes". Do you have any experience with those? Thanks, Ed

Thanks for the quick response. Ed

Guys, The plastic-clad wheels on my 2009 Limited look crappier by the week. I'm wondering how difficult it would be to remove that plastic without overly scratching and damaging the rim. Does anyone have experience with removing that stuff? Thanks, Ed

Looks good too. Thanks, Ed

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot. Ed

Something like that. I had a Ford deflector on my 2007 Edge that was installed like that. I don't want to tape it directly to the hood.

Hi, I'm searching for a bug deflector for my 2009 Edge. I only found those that are taped directly to the hood but I want one that has a 2" or so gap between the plastic and the metal. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks, Ed

Thanks a lot. Ed

Is that (fake) wooden bezel available somewhere on the Internet?

Hi, Can someone tell me if the 2009 6 CD changer unit has sync installed? Thanks, Ed Never mind, found that little Sync/Microsoft logo.

Yeah, They're kind of rubber bumpers. I thought they were part of the deflector package. Apparently not.

I noticed that the bug deflector on my 2007 Edge was rattling and it turned out that several of the rubber cone standoffs were missing. I did an Internet search but could not find any replacements. Are these things even available or are they only part of a new deflector? Thanks, Ed

I got a similar letter about availability next year, I believe it when I see it. Them asking that nobody uses the passenger seat for almost 2 years is beyond laughable. I guess the occasional law suit because of bodily harm or death is cheaper than making a real effort to help their customers. Ed

Thanks for the quick response. I have replaced both sockets already. Just wanted to make sure that this is kind of normal. Ed

Hi, I just was about to replace a bulb in my 2007 Edge taillight when I noticed that the brake light socket was halfway melted. Checked the other side, same thing. Is that normal wear and tear? Thanks, Ed

Thanks a lot. Ed

Guys, Thanks for the detailed info. What about the high beams? Ed
