Since the 05 F250/350 HU will not work in the 03 or 04 F250/350 I would think that this NAV unit would not work either.
No, I do not have the part # but it is the factory Nav HU from an 06 Ford 500. From what I understand the Pioneer/factory DVD Nav unit was available on 7 FoMoCo vehicles. The Ford units will display the Ford logo but can be programed differently if you can find someone that knows how it can be done. I have not found the right person for custom programming.

well - i have a buddy who is a ford parts guyand and does all the parts for the body shop - he could not locate one from a 500 in a salvage yard - and he searched from texas to california - and to buy one from ford - at this point you have to provide the vin number of the vehicle it came in - as in a replacement for a stolen unit
the next best choice looks like if from an 06 explorer - does any one have pic of the rear of the stock am/fm/6 cd and/or the 500 unit to see how it compares to the explorer unit

bump for answer.
I say again, whats the deal with them not working? Is it just a matter of the brackets not mounting up right is the wiring not compatible. If its the wiring, whats to keep someone from splicing them into a new kit?
