ReplacementRadios, one of the largest factory audio/video websites, has branched out!! If you’ve been to our site, you know we have a HUGE selection of OEM radios and compatible accessories. Now we’re offering a few select products here too. Same great ReplacementRadios quality.....in a new location.
SUMMARY
READ THIS PARAGRAPH: This is a parts listing, not a radio! Some people buy from our parts listings thinking they're getting a radio. This is despite VERY clear titles and ads. (And text on the picture, in some cases.) If we send an email, asking you to confirm your intent to order a part, please answer it. (If you actually want a part and would like to save a potential delay, include a note with your purchase.) We reserve the right to cancel your order if you don't respond. We do this because we are concerned about you. We're afraid you might be wasting time and money. On a related note, we've received negative feedback because we cancelled an order when the member actually intended to order a part. That's ridiculous on a couple levels. First, simply respond to our email and it won't happen. We give you at least one whole day. Second, it's very easy to re-order if we cancel. It's definitely NOT something to leave negative feedback over. We are not refusing to sell to you. We were just trying to protect you. It only takes a couple minutes to go through the checkout process again. If you're reading this after-the-fact, please take accountability for your actions. This ad is very clear, if you actually read it. Our ads are also very clear if returns are not accepted. You cannot, rationally, blame us if you purchased the wrong thing and we won't accept a return. We have good reasons for not accepting returns on a few items. Sometimes they're on clearance. If we've discounted something to get rid of it, we have no desire to get it back. Sometimes it's because an item is sensitive to shipping damage. We know how to package sensitive items but we've found, from experience, they aren't always packed well for a return. Please understand, all situations addressed in this paragraph are brought on by a failure to read the ad. Reading is fundamental and accountability for one's actions is a basic concept that seems to be forgotten these days. Now, on to the item details...
The Ford radios manufactured by Delco are known for bad button wear. Don't let a worn out looking radio drag your vehicle down. Get your replacement faceplate from ReplacementRadios. If you're in need of a face for the Delco CD radio in your 2005-2006 Ford or Mercury vehicle because of worn buttons, you've come to the right place. This is a brand new trimplate with brand new lens and buttons. The buttons are all black. This is not the chrome-trimmed version that started appearing in 2007 and it is NOT compatible on those radios.
You can use most of these buttons on the CD6 radio. The presets, seek, text, am-fm and cd buttons are the same, for instance, and those are the ones that usually wear on the other radios. So simply swap those into your face and you're good to go. (The eject button is definitely different from the CD6 radios. The other buttons not addressed here may or may not be the same.)
We sometimes include a 'parts' circuit board behind the face simply to keep everything in place but please understand that the board, if included, is for parts only and is not guaranteed to be functional. (Sometimes we use cardboard or other types of retainers to keep the buttons in place.) You are paying for the face only. The board, if included, is for button retention only. Please do not buy this listing if your only need is the board because it is not guaranteed to be included or even to be good if it is there.
This can ONLY be used on Delco manufactured Ford CD radios and your vehicle must also be on the application list above. This is NOT compatible with the Visteon or Pioneer manufactured Ford radios. If your radio has button wear, you probably have a Delco because that was an INCREDIBLY common problem with them. However, if you want to be sure, pull your radio and make sure it does not say Pioneer or Visteon on any of the stickers. Another indicator it is a Delco is an 8-digit numeric part number above the Ford number on the part sticker. Returns are not accepted so make sure you're ordering the right thing.
**This face does not have the mp3 labeling but it is still compatible on the 05/06 mp3 radios. Who cares if the button doesn't say FOLDER? You know what it's going to do when you press it. What's more important is that your radio doesn't look junky anymore. Appearance does not change functionality. Functionality is controlled by the boards and you will be re-using yours, so you will retain the mp3 functions.
Whatever you do, make sure to unplug your radio from the harness and let it sit for at least 60 minutes before attempting to do the repair. We do not remind you of this anywhere other than this ad so take note now!
This is NOT the same as the 2007+ version. This is also not compatible on Visteon or Pioneer manufactured radios. Returns are not accepted, so make sure you're ordering the right thing.
Instructions for installation or removal are not included. If you do not feel comfortable attempting this replacement or are not qualified to perform the replacement you should seek an electronics shop that will do it for you or ask us about sending it in for us to do it. We can tell you that you MUST disconnect the negative battery terminal or remove the plugs from the back of the radio and let it sit for at least 60 minutes BEFORE you attempt to do any work on the radio. Failure to do so can result in a short within the radio. We've had many reports of it from people who ignored this caution. Don't be one of them!!
