careful about those how to sites...they really mean[ how to get lost in an unfixable project] ok first you got to get a small screw driver and a soft rag to cover the tip...the next is to gently finesse the screw driver around the outer trim[bezel]when you get to a clip the bezel will be harder to pull away in that area, if you use a gentle twisting motion of the screwdriver the clips [POP] rite out...make sure before performing this step there are no screws in the lower bezel, some models do... after bezel removal, I'm assuming you have a standard stock stereo,youll need the radio tool, 2 horse shoe looking inserts,see the 4 holes in the face of the stereo, one tool in each side and gently pull the tools away from it each other, dont pull back until your sure the clips on the stereo are opened [the stereo will wiggle slitely]using the tools pull the stereo out till you can get your fingers on it and grasp and pull out till you can get the stereo plug, unplug,install after market plug you got from RADIO SHACK, a STEREO STORE, or your local parts store...i say get the after market plug kit so you dont have to cut harness,it attaches to the stereo and plugs into the factory harness... your new stereo will probably need a face adapter kit,also available at your local supplier, just follow the directions from the manufacturer of the wiring plug and the face adapter kit and then reverse the disassembly instructions here minus the factory stereo and thats all there is.....ok,,you need-plug kit for your vehicle and new stereo,,and the stereo adapter kit,and the ford stereo removal tool available at your local parts store....and hopefully this is more detailed than the do it yourself site,I HOPE YOU COME BACK WITH ALL YOUR DO IT YOURSELF QUESTIONS,we're all happy to help any we possibly can....
