You might need a dash kit, but you shouldnt have any trouble making that unit fit your car.

Crutchfield says that the 9311

This item does not fit your Taurus.

I dont know why not as your car has 7 1/2" of depth to fit a HU into, but thats what they say.

[wadeakiss]

[wadeakiss]

Ok for an update the headunit came in today and with about a hr or so worth of work me and my buddy got the head unit in, I had to pull out the metal sleeve and it slid in about half way the with the help of a butter knife we got it in the rest of the way. Im very happy with the headunit the only problem we came across was the parking break wire didnt wanna hook up right but i used a bypass code and it works like a dream now thanks for all your help guys //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
