2011 f150 fitment question
http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Ford-Fusion-Escape-Mustang-Expedition-Android-4-4-Car-DVD-Radio-GPS-Stereo-/181245278419?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368
Can anyone tell me why this unit wouldn't fit in 09-14 F150's? The description has the units dimensions, but doesn't elaborate as to why it won't fit the years in question. This has all the features I've been looking for, and I plan on buying a mounting kit and double din faceplate to replace the integrated radio panel.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Wiring and probably canbus issues. It isn't a true double din made for other vehicles than the ones it is made for. I wouldn't personally buy one on ebay from china. Amazon has them.

The canbus is for the steering wheel controls, isn't it? My truck is an XL, so I don't have any radio controls on the wheel.
Thanks for the Amazon link. I used the eBay link since they had the dimensions diagram and a pic of the 09-14 dash with an X stating it won't fit.
I've thought about ordering one along with a mounting kit, but I really hate the thought of tearing everything apart then finding out that something within the dash is in the way.
I would be happy with a slightly different case design if I could find one with all of these features and screen resolution, but I haven't found that yet.

It is designed to fit the vehicles listed because of the built in mounting bracket. There are plenty of better HU's that are made to fit your truck with the correct mounting bracket and wiring kit. That screen resolution is pretty much standard. If you want to stick with this brand name then check out the link below and look at a model that is not made for a certain vehicle.
