I have a 2000 GT. Love the car, and no offense to ford, but the Mach 460 is annoying me.
It's got the Radio/Tape up top, then the CD player dropped below. I have a radio deck with cd player and all which I really want to use, but wait... not working because Ford decided to make the 460 the exact opposite of anything even close to standard.
I am hearing and read tons of posts about how the mach 460 cant be used with a new deck because the entire system has to be rewired.
I would love to actually redo everything however, I have no experiance with audio electronics in cars. I do have tons of experiance with wiring and computer electronics. It isn't helping that much.
So, what I need to know in a nutshell is... is there a cost efficent way to rewire the whole thing and replace everything (I imagine all the speaks need to be replaced too, etc?) for a decent price, nothing fancy now, I just want something that can match the 460's sound but WILL be upgradeable, aka no factory installed. What will I need exactly? I don't have tons of money to shell out.
OR....
Is there a way I can get my deck installed? (It fits, I got the spacer thingy and all) to work with the cars speakers and amps and all that mess without loosing quality?
Thanks,
Louis
