Re: what aftermarket nav system for '06 FEH?
Does anyone have a more detailed description or an image of this "lip" part that needs to be cut out for fitting a double-din system? It would really help me visualize and determine if I could do this install myself, especially when the stores want to charge me $300 for it, which I don't have the budget for.
Some of the Escape specific websites/forums have pictures and descriptions of 2DIN headunit installs if you are still curious.
Be careful though, it's a slippery slope you're on. If you haven't upgraded the speakers yet, you'll really want to once you put that new headunit in. Then "while you're at it" you might want to sound deaden the doors to improve the sound and reduce road noise...good luck!

One of the Escape forums (forgot which one) has a pretty detailed description of this. Basically you can go nuts and make your Escape as quiet as a Lexus or just beef up the sound coming out of your speakers. If you have a good installer, they will know all about this as well. The products are sold under names like Dynamat and RAAMat.
