Hello, all. I just bought my first Ford in years, an '05 Freestyle SEL. I like it.
The radio sounds okay, and it's a 6cd/mp3 unit.
At some point I'd like to either add an aux input to play my Sirius radio, or get a factory Sirius box, but for right now, I'm just disappointed that the radio doesn't have RDS.
It's a 5F9T-18C815GA radio. I've been looking on ebay and there are lots of sets that look like they'd fit my dash, but how can I tell if they have RDS? Some have a combination TEXT/SCAN button, could that be a giveaway? I could live with a single CD/MP3 slot, if I could have RDS.
If someone can give me a few pointers, maybe I can grab a bargain on ebay and actually get one that will work!
Thanks, John
