Where To Install A Satellite Radio In A Ford Expedition

Satellite radios receive the signal relayed from space.


A new development in radio technology has been the emergence of satellite radio. This is a digital or analog radio signal that is relayed through satellites and received in a much larger geographical area than a normal signal. There also are certain channels that only broadcast over satellite radio. Satellite radio can be received in a Ford Expedition by installing a satellite-capable head unit or an extra radio tuner in the dash of the car.


Instructions


1. Clean the window. Screw the mount to the windscreen suction cup. Attach the mount anywhere on the windscreen that it can be easily and safely operated by the driver, without impeding vision. Push down on the tab to hold the suction cup in place.


2. Mount the radio on the vents. Screw the vehicle dock to the vent clip mount. Push the arms of the vent mount into the vent until they clip onto the back. Use the support foot of the radio to hold the radio in place. Some radios can be mounted on the air vents of the Expedition. Clip the mount onto the air vents and slide the radio onto the mounts. Only use this option if the radio is small enough that it will not affect operation of the other controls as the vents on the Expedition are narrow on either side of the main radio.


3. Install the radio on a dash mount. Clean the dash surface. Dry and warm the surface if possible with a hairdryer. Remove the adhesive strip on the back of the dash mount and place the mount on the dashboard above the center dash radio console. Leave the mount for four hours to allow the adhesive to set. Attach the radio to the mount.
