To anyone out there who knows about, and is a fan of, the Ford factory



6 disc Cd head unit:

I just got a new 2005 F350 and I really really kinda want the FACTORY head unit, 6 disc cd player. I kinda like the design and simplicity, and ergonomics of the factory unit, I like the way it looks, and think it also seems like a good stereo with all the features I need. Would anyone else agree??



Ok, so my question now is does anyone know if I can ad an AMPLIFIER, and lets say a sub-woofer and a little bit more of a high end system with punch, WITH this FACTORY HEAD UNIT??



I might buy one from a junkyard or ebay but am now thinking I'd really like to also upgrade the rest of the system a little bit. But I like the factory look.


> I don't know if any of them have RCA outputs, or what??? Or how this could be done??

Can I hook up an AMP & SUB with a factory head unit in my new truck?


Thanks to anyone who can help me with this answer!

ps. I might not even want or need to change the factory speakers either, but just want to ad a little more juice! You know what I mean!!
