My 05 with the MP3/6 CD changer/sub woofer did not. I don't believe any of the stock Ford radios have RCA connections.

That is all it means on the earlier stereos, just plays MP3 format disks. Only the later stereos with the aux input on the top of the dash board accept I-pods and such. which my kids (or should I say Santa) got me for Christmas, and it works GREAT!

I agree that no stock radios have RCA jacks. I just changed out my stock audiophile headunit and it did not have them.

Left all the factory speakers, including sub installed. Just swapped out the HU since it refused to play CD's.
