03 F150 Double Din mod and Kenwood DDX471HD DVD receiver install 

Link to BOYO Vision backup camera: amzn.to/3Rz4WNN

To enlarge the dash so that the double din head unit fits, use an ossilating power tool with a plunge cutting blade for the top 1/4" and the 60 grit sanding triangle attachment for the lower plastic lip. Its easy and takes less than 20 minutes and is MUCH cleaner.

Thank goodness I found this video. Just purchased Jensen double din with GPS, Siriusxm and back up camera , all from Crutchfield. Their instructions are crap. They have a good Tech phone line, but actually seeing you do it is awesome. Oh, installing in a 2002 F 150 Supercrew. Right now trying to find best place to run the wires for the GPS and Siriusxm antennas. Which are not supposed to be near each other. I sympathize on the dash paint. It is crap. Thanks !

Dont even have a double din and just sat here and watched him put it in

I would let you do my f150 same model bc you did an excellent job.Thanks for the vid i want one in mine now but i don't have the patience to do it myself.

Thanks Man I picked everything up today from my friends car audio shop we had to order the Sirius XM interface

Nice video. Thanks and just a heads up. When these 97 to 03 f150 dash parts start flaking you can take them down to the original black plastic under the tan & add a coat of black paint. if done right it looks good and like it’s supposed to be that way. Either way it looks better than peeling or touch up paint.

i painted my entire piece like yours with plastikote spray paint. just clean up w rubbing alcohol and paint. tough as nails now. i painted it silver to match my truck. 2000 f 150

I used to only buy single din Kenwood radios for my 99 f150. I’m runnin an 1800W amp and 2 12’s. 6x8’s by Kenwood in the doors. The amp is Power Akoustik and been underwater 3 different times due to being stuck in some deep ass mud holes. Threw itself into protection mode each time and turned right back on after all 3 times. Anyway, the last radio I bought was a double din PA 625B or something like that. I really wish I would’ve stuck with the older Kenwoods I used to buy. Did a good amount of trimming and regret it now. Oh well at least it looks nice. I’m gonna upgrade my radio soon. Probably get another Kenwood

Lmao every time I do a stereo like these I ALWAYS forget to do the mic haha so i understand your frustration!

Hey buddy I like how it come out I really like the usb and aux passthrough

That unit looks great 🤔 I kinda didn't want a full touch one like that but that seems so flush and factory like . Looks great

A lot of people don't know that you're suppose to cut the bottom bar off just above the heater controls, this will allow the radio to slide down far enough to expose the DVD slot more so it will be easier to slide a CD/DVD in and out

Hello yeah man finally found this I appreciate it man

Why don’t you clean up the part and re paint the whole thing. Nice review, install

Good job bro , now you never have to leave your truck for anything ...

local audio store but you probably can get them on Amazon.com as well.

nice job, looks clean not sloppy at all

Thanks for the heads up on the Reverse wire up at the dash, Will my my kenwood install go so much easier ! :)

One of the best videos on this topic...thank you

ally nice job on the wiring .That sucks with all the paint flacking off the panel .I'm like you I couldn't stanfd looking at the dash even after touching up the paint . Killer audio video setup !!!

i find the best thing for cutting anything plastic, is a "zipdisk" on die grinder or dremel. i used a dremal on mine. the blade is wide and makes it easy for nice straight cuts, also melts as much as cuts, you can rub it off with your fingers for a nice clean edge. but very nice, i have pioneer dbl din, n a 14" lcd for backseat for the kids, and a 7" for a "heads up" screen onthe windshield.. lol (only the backseat plays when driving of course... )

good clean install👍

What paint code, brand touch up? Same dash same flaking lol

You're saudering skills are artistic

Nice install.

Dude said that a 2003 F150 LOL. It's funny cuz I always said that that's a perfect spot for that lol😄

Thanks for making this video. Just bought an '03 F150 and I wanted to know if this was possible. Cool video, shame about the paint.

Remove bezel, lightly sand touch up spots to smooth, then reprint entire bezel... you can order almost any color in a rattle can... black is always good 😊 ready made..!! Just saying..!

15:18, 15:20, Tourette’s guy? 😂

these videos help me alot because i have the same truck

Wood dash kit would do it justice

this is what somebody did to my 2002 f 150 and now Im stuck with the stupid double din radio I cant put a factory radio back in because of grinding the plastic out!!

Good job man ,I put the same unit in my 2014 Ram,, the only thing bad thing about what you did wrong was that you Installed it in a F-150..good job looks great

The Kenwood model doesn't have the camera guidelines built in?

15:17 😂😂 nah man it looks good

nice work bro ....

I'd like to know where you got that soldering lamp at? That's a nice looking, practical setup right there. Seriously, I want one just like it... does the lamp have a built in light?

Looks like I'll need a cutting tool. Got the metra 95-5818 that Best buy said fits.

My first after market stereo was a Kenwood I put in my first car. It was not that fancy though:).

all fords measurements for radio opening are the same size, used the same console for a 2005 for ranger, took it out then used it on my 2003 ford f1504#4

Does it play video from bluetooth thats mainly what im looking for

I have an 03 xl flairside, just curious why didnt you in stall the usb and aux port below where the lighter and charger port is, then it would have all been hidden?

Great Info. Great Job.

It is an F-ing nightmare! The dash is not symmetrical. It slopes back going to the right. It has the room to install but the damn overhang on the take out dash is the biggest issue! I have an 01 Expedition so it's not much different than this. I bought a cheap chinese double din touch screen. It's a third of the depth. I actually like it for a $100. It does my video, bluetooth, radio, etc. I have no need for cds or dvds when I can rip them to my computer or download straight from RU-vid and put them on an sd card and right into the radio. Picture is actually good. It's not as refined as a name brand radio but it does the functions I want. It's a 180w and I am going back to look at the 240w at the Pawn store and probably buy it and swap. It has a little bit more options and hopefully some more power. I got the premium speakers but I think the previous owner installed better ones. They just have too much bass to be cheap. But back to the install. Before you even take the dash out paint is chipping. You get in there thinking, " Oh I have plenty of room!". BULL CRAP! My Dremmel had been dead for awhile and I had to trim the dash by hand with plyers and a file. I hardly ever need a Dremmel so I wasn't going to buy one just for this(now I wish I had). I really need to clean the edges on the plastic mount. So I sit the radio in and it fits. Put the dash in and it's sunk in. Pull all the crap out and then you have to put the dash back on and force the radio in until pops into place. Then the convex dashboard is in the way. I finally got it stuck in there for a couple months and yesterday I watched a video on it. THE DAMN LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS WERE REVERSED. I wired correctly for color. Either my harness wasn't right or my vehicle. Swapped the wires and put it back the way it mashed together with paint still chipping. Nothing fits. The dash is expanding with it being warmer is all I can figure. So I took it all out and did a little dash trimming. Still wouldn't force back in place. So I cut out some industrial velcro and one piece on top of the radio and the other on the underside of the dash. Shoved it back in and sits perfectly flush. It's a 7" thin border screen. The original factory I think is 6"? Anyway I'm buying a cheap Dremmel to clean the visible pieces I just trimmed. Going to Autozone and getting paint and making this a done and over with project that has been going on for months now. You can never be happy with it.

Great job man!!! Looks like a professional did it. Can you send me the link to where I can order the backup camera?

you should get one from lmc truck

Did you use an install kit at all ? I watched the video but can't tell if you ended up using it or not . Im in the process of doing the exact same install in my 98'

That radio is ultra cool. Your flaky dash bezel is lame. Good vid Cobra

i accidentally hook up ground wire for video to 12v power wire and loss subs for bluetooth only is there any way of fixing it?

well i understand that flaking paint do you know if they make paint for dashes i've got a big chunk off where the headlight switch turns on

That wiring harness is for all 2003 f150s? Just solder it to my dual double din?

Hey I installed a double din in my f150 but I'm getting no sound but I have power do you know why?

Did you have any issues putting everything back together?????

hey man that metal bracket piece at the very back did you remove it, bend it or dis the double din slide right in with it being where it is.?

Is it 6.5 inch or 7 inch

Nice video. Any chance you know if the reverse light wiring is the same on the manual?

nice video this helped

where did you end up putting your mic at? top of the a-pillar? or middle of the front part of the headliner?

I have a 2002 f150 harley davidson edition pick up I am thinking of upgrading the stereo to an alpine or kenwood is there a way to integrate the aftermarket radio to the center console rear control?

Where did you find the USB pass through and the Aux pass through?

Did you also trim the sides of the stock bracket or just the top of it to fit the headunit in?

that usb port you put in , did it have threads or did it just snap in and where did you buy it ?

Hi what did you hook the blue white remote wire to?

Did you have to trim anything else other then the face. Our local audio store said they had to trim the ac docking to fit a dble din.

The inside of the head unit cubby in my 2002 has a slanted plastic shroud that makes the inside not quite double din sized towards the back... It looks like at some point you cut this off (or the 2003's didn't come with it)... Do I just Dremel the crap out of that shroud to open things up in there?

where did you find USB pass through?

I'm confused on how you soldered the wires outside of the car??? Please help

Very nice

Hello i have a stereo that have extra wires , a blue , brown , and a pink one do i just leave those there without connection?

Great job man!!!

my f150 supercrew dash panel is solid tan plastic and couldnt flake off are you sure that someone didnt replace it with a black one and just paint it ?

Badass

Do I actually need to trim that and connect those wires together like u mentioned in the beginning?

question - did you do any cutting on the trim itself for the radio? I thought I had to trim a little and it looks like Shhhhh. if you didn't I'm ordering another one tomorrow, let me know please. yours loos great

not sure why he had to trim the iso mount? its a double din stereo, should just slide in like every other ford

Another question where did you position or route your Bluetooth brands free mic ?

That rocks

thanks for the very informative video man.

You can buy a new trim piece on EBAY.

is there a specific size i should stay away from or well they all fit with little trimming

the panel looks similar but do you think the installation would be the same for a 1998 f150?

Filming here

where did you get that dash trim paint mine is peeling something awful

I too have a 2003 ford f150 with the same paint chipping where did you get the paint at or please share the code.

Why order a trim piece when you can find one in a junkyard for barely anything.

Hey do u neeed that plastic thing you bought for the outside of the sterio

Where did you order dash touch up paint?

We’re there any gaps you had to fill??

Just finished putting in a pioneer double din touch deck. avh-280bt. spent 6 hours. tons of dash modifications. still cant put the faceplace over top of the deck. looks kind of ghetto. seriously not worth it. should have left my single din in and left it.

Not showing where to route wires.. that the part i was looking for

SEM TRIM PAINT. Paint the whole dash.

Just repaint the whole thing 😉 i have to do the same

Can’t watch Netflix on your Apple car play?

will this receiver display mpg?

"this looks like ASS" -- making me afraid to go try this on my truck, those chips are huge... hah.

NO YOUR ALL WRONG THE SHRINK TUBE GOES ON LAST AFTER YOU SOLDER THE JOINT TOGEATHER HAHAHAH funny how we learn this the hard way Nice job man AAARRRGGGG you forgot to hook up your bluetooth man that sucks
