Is the wiring compatable. I know it was for the fOCUS I used to have.

Yes it is. I used to have the single cd/tape plare and got a 6cd/mp3 and it works perfectly, same plug thingy on the back.

I tryed putting my MP3 stock deck into my dad's 01 f150. He use to have just a am/fm cass deck. It worked for like a day then no sound came out of it. It worked when I plugged it back in the ranger though. It's always worth a try!

Doesn't really matter now. :( I got out-bid ($152.00 w/$20 shipping). It was for a 2005 model Ranger.

If you keep an eye out on here you can find someone selling their stock deck. That's how I got mine.

I'm assuming he's talking about his Silver 2004 Ranger XLT 4x4 ECSB.

But yeah, if it's the Focus your talking about Matt, disreguard everything we said.

I took the 6 disc out of my 01 Ranger and it fit right in the 99 Eddie Bauer Explorer....even the steering wheel controls worked. :-)

If you scroll down further, I asked about these 6CD stackers and got a lot of good response. Be sure to check it out. Mine gave up, so I'm going back to single when I find one. 6CD stackers mechanisms are fragile.
