Audio Systems: 2001 Mercury Sable LS Premium radio, electronic climate control, 2001 mercury sable

Question
The radio in my 2001 Sable has the integrated radio/electronic climate control, making it potentially impossible to install an after-market in-dash stereo (thanks Ford).  Do you have any suggestions?

Answer
Chris,
NO worry, I will give you the name of a company that makes a replacement front panel that all you do is to take out your existing panel and remove all the electronics/electrical items and install them on the replacement panel. These replacement panels have a DIN size hole cut out for installing/replaceing the factory stereo with one of your choice. I will have that info for you some time next week after I return from a mini vacation.

TOM,
