Ford Factory HD Radio available?

[sunilp]

I just saw on the fordaccessories.com site there is a factory HD tuner with Ipod integration. Has anyone tried it? I have a factory nav unit with audiophile system. Was wondering if it works with this setup? It's a 2008 f250SD

300 bucks...and its LISTED to fit and 08...its a REPLACEMENT radio.

I definitely don't want to replace my current nav unit. any aftermarket addons?

I dont know of any for HD radio...generally thats either built into the
tuner or you dont get it (i havent seen aftermarket tuners, like folks
use for sat radio)

as for additional audio input sources and integrating them to the factory
head unit...check w/ pac-audio

that is SWEET...and it sure beats the heck outta the cost of
Sat radio's subscription charge per month !

kinda pricey though...

$279(retail) $255 (street) WITHOUT the ipod connection
$299 (retail) $269 (street) WITH the ipod connection

Hmmmm depends if the newer stereos actually come with aux audio inputs like right and left RCA's.

It's a free call to Crutchfield 1-888-955-6000. Give them the info on your year truck with exact model radio you have and they should be able to dial you in.

I give Crutchfield for past experiences with them.
