New member! I have a 2007 Edge SEL Plus. Love that car. 127K on the clock and she runs perfectly. Its the wife's car and she just won't upgrade to a newer edge!!! She absolutely Loves "Her" car. In the past 13 years I have drive that car Maybe 20 times!!! She wanted a Remote Start for Xmas. Thats a go... she loves that feature. Now I am trying to upgrade her stereo with a touch screen. I have started a separate topic under the Audio forum as well. Great to be here!!! Thanks for the Addition to the site!! Jeff(Racko)

Hi everyone. New to the Forum. I have a 2007 Edge SEL Plus. I want to replace the stereo with an aftermarket Touch Screen. I have purchased the radio unit, Pioneer, MVH-300EX thru Amazon Prime. . I had an estimate to install it and I can't believe what the shop is going to charge!!! I have perused YouTube vids to get an Idea of the level of effort. From what I have viewed / read, its pretty straight forward. However, I am not sure what parts a really necessary. One video I observed, I was able to capture parts they used. I have priced those out with Crutch-field and Amazon. The shop provided me a list of parts needed and I can't really justify those based on what I have seen. I do want to preserve the Steering Wheel controls. Also, not sure if this model has the factory sub woofer. I hope this makes sense..... Just looking for an idea what parts I truly need to pull this off. The parts list *I* have is this: RadioPro 4 interface for ford (CAN) Metra 99-5807 DBL Din Kit the universal Antenna adapter. I am sure that there are a few that have completed this swap. Is it possible someone could share this with me? I would appreciate it! Many thanks! Racko
