nope no excuses here Sean i will finish the job im researching it and working on it!!! the adapter has the wires cut too short, i want to get the original plugs (seen here http://www.ebay.com/itm/190381573299...84.m1439.l2649 ) and wire them back on to the harness. and ill probably need to get a new adapter (seen here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Radio-A...a9ec57&vxp=mtr )

some of the wires on the adapter are connected to the harness but the idiot did a shotty job and wires he didne use he chopped off too far back on the adapter plug i cannot get any wires connected to the adapter plug

Why would you need one to remove an aftermarket radio? I don't, only needed it for the factory radio.

Each radio comes with its own style release tool to get it out of the cage.

Hmmmm, mine just slides out? It was a cheaper kenwood though, like $110 or so.

It should have come with one. Look on each side of the radio, under the face if it comes off. There will be a slot on each side the tool slips into.

i actually have the radio removal tool cause i also own a stock 1990 Mustang GT 5 speed and use the tool to get that radio out

i got the radio out with a tiny screw driver and pulling by reaching in through the HVAC once it gave in it came flying out at me and left be bruised and bloody

Ive used my Pioneer removal tools over a few generations and on a couple Kenwoods. Your stereo shouldnt just slide out unless they mangled the cage during install.

I had to replace the factory harness ends on my F150, as they were missing, i got them from onlinecarstereo.com. Use their fit guide. Mine needed Metra 71-1770.

What case are y'all talking about? I installed the radio.
