Upgrade head unit and retain factory dvd??
I'm looking to upgrade the head unit in the X, something with a big screen, navigation, input for backup camera, etc. But, I want to retain the ability to use the steering wheel controls and the factory dvd system in the back. How can I accomplish this? Any recommended head units?

Well I was going to run a search since this has been covered a plethora of times, however the advanced search seems to be glitching out on my tablet.
Since the Excursion has been out for a hot minute, there are plenty of aftermarket conversion harnesses (you'll need one anyway for an aftermarket unit) that should hook into your existing harness and serve as a bridge adapter to carry a lot of the features over to an aftermarket stereo deck.
If I can find where my laptop went to, I'll see if the search is working on there. Or you can run one yourself, there's a lot of threads covering this already with tons of great information

I googled the titled of your thread plus excursion and turned up this old post which should have what you're looking for.
