[QUOTE="KaeZoo, post: 1909461, member: 554753"] You can install an aftermarket head unit and keep the steering wheel controls by using a third-party adapter like PAC's SWI series. You'd have to pick out a head unit with a wired remote jack, then use the correct interface; ie, most new Pioneer head units have the jack, and you'd buy a SWI-PS to go with it. Tapping into the factory system would be simpler. All you need is a Line-out converter. When you have factory amplifiers, you just have to tap the LOC between the amplifier and the speaker, and make sure you pick a speaker that plays the frequencies you want to tap. To add a subwoofer amp in an Explorer, just tap into the wires running to the factory sub. You can then disconnect the factory subwoofer if you wish. [/QUOTE]
