Sounds like you have a pain in the *** in front of you. If your "new" factory deck is not compatible with your existing "premium" sound system then you are going to have to re-wire the entire system.

And since when do Escort's come with premium sound systems??

premium sound systems in fords dont mean a thing. although the new mach 1000 system in the mustang packs a little punch with 1140 watts
