Yes, you will need a wiring kit, but you dash should accept the player. That said, I would not purchase this player if you have any intentions oc listing to music at any quality level. This unit is pretty much junk!

Yes, you will need dip stick, torque converter and speedo set-up kit. But it is direct bolt-up

Yes it will fit but you will need to modify the sub dash on the Ranger. You will also need a mounting kit like a Metra 95-5817 that Fits a 1995-2010 Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda vehicles - double-DIN radios

Yes a double din and this kit and a harness kit is all you need. The harness doesn't come with this kit

Each vehicle is different, you have to know make,model,year of your vehicle. For example.I have a 1996 ford ranger es with rear wheel drive, automatic tranny, 4 cyclinder gas engine. I would recommend Adding your cars info first

I installed mine last spring but I do remember that the kit was complete. I think they may have included a few things that I did not require for my situation.

If the Ranger has H11 bulbs they should fit. Autozone.com shows an 06 Ranger takes 9007 bulbs.

In my opinion, you only need a good electronic technical installer, which could cost between 250 - 300 for installing your kit. The kits are complete and will not requite any additional purchases.

Yes it is very easy to install, but you will need the year, make and model wiring harness as well.

There are videos that you can see on YouTube if you ask the right question. It's relatively easy for someone who has a ratchet wrench and a common Phillips screwdriver. I trust were talking about a 2003 Ford Ranger? I'm going from memory, so here goes...Step 1 - (Very Important) Remove battery cables, and wait 5 minutes, then hit the horn, turn the radio on and off, use your turn signal. (This is in case there's still some power that may be stored in a capacitor that might accidently cause your sensitive airbag to go off. ($1,000.00 mistake) Step 2 - Pop off the 2 covers in the steering column located around 9 and 3 o'clock. Remove the 2 bolts with ratchet and extension (10mm?). Lift the padded airbag/horn assembly (A/HA) off. Detach the wire harness at the (A/HA), (It's much easier than detaching it at the column) and place the (A/HA) on the passenger seat. Step 3 - Remove the 4 screws holding the 2 switches in place and pay attention as to how the wiring is harnessed. Install the new unit, being very careful not to chaff the wires. DON'T TAKE SHORTCUTS! If you don't follow the pattern, you can cause costly damage to your electrical system, or worse yet, the wiring might get caught when you attempt to make a turn, and jam up your steering wheel which could cause a serious accident. Step 4 - reverse the steps you just took. It's really simple, it should take you between 30 to 45 minutes. If you're not too sure about yourself, you might want someone who has a little more mechanical abilities to stand by while you're installing it. It's a very good product at a great price. If you do it yourself, you've just saved $200.00. Good luck.

We have it on a 2008 F250 and it is a bit snug but works. It would probably work fine on a Ranger with a 60/40 split seat.

The kit comes with 2 mounting brackets. I have it on a 86 ford ranger.....looks very nice.

It comes with everything to change out your existing. I'm not recalling if that included tank bolts.

Should come with everything you need. Just make sure to follow instructions for your exact car. Or Google if others have installed on your make and model.

you don't need install kit. If you have never installed a over head unit. I would have a professional install it. you have side air bags you have to run wires around

Nope. You will need what my installer called a "pigtail", which he got at Pep Boys, or NAPA for about $10. I still haven't come to grips with how much better my engine runs. It is surprising how much difference it made.

I suppose you could add them, but the OEM single horn on my Ford Ranger was such a POS that I replaced it with the dual PIAA horns. I even used the original mounting point. My Ranger's electrical connector was some proprietary piece so I took the other end off the orig. horn and put it on the PIAAs. That way it plugged right in and I didn't have to butcher the orig. harness. Your vehicle's connector might not require any changes. Its a nice, dual tone sound that, while not as loud as air horns, is much louder than the original.
