You need to purchase the mounting bracket or make one. I made mine and it worked fine on my Ford pickup. pretty easy.

I installed it on a 1998 Lincoln navigator 5.4 so I don't know if it will fit the 4.6 explorer

Will be using a transom mount. Lowrance has a good customer service group that could offer help.

I just went to the daystar website. Emailed them my make/model and they gave me the exact part number required for my vehicle. Then searched Amazon and purchased/installed with no issues. Hope this helps. Great product and made a HUGE difference in ride quality. Be aware, depending on where you live the bolts that hold the mounts may be severely corroded. Mine where due to the 2001 Explorer Sport was from South Carolina. Turned out to be a bigger job that I first thought.

Hi Tim,This listing is NOT the correct lug pattern for your Explorer. Your Ford requires a 5x114.3 (5x4.5) lug pattern and unfortunately that part number is currently on national backorder (MFG Part# XD77579004312N).Thanks,BWT

I bought mine for a 2002 Explorer and they did not fit so I returned them. Ended up buying a set of Milenco model Aero 2 which worked out very well. These are the type that clamp to the top of the mirror housing and the mirrors are on the end of a bar that runs through the clamps. More expensive but much nicer - no regrets.

I am unsure, but "2-Din" is a double height standard for all radio/CD/DVD players. If the center-dash of the Explorer can accommodate a 2-Din unit (and most current vehicles can), then you should be okay. Check with your dealer if it is 2-Din compatible.

I used it on my '97 Explorer Eddie Bauer. Everything was good except for the connector, which took some creative modification to make it fit. I think the part might have been changed slightly in the middle of the 97's, but I'm not completely sure.

No need to buy a special mounting kit. It comes with the metal bracket that fits into dash radio opening and wiring harness. Fyi bend as many tabs on the bracket to hold into dash, this will make a good tight fit and professional looking installation. Good luck take your time can't beat the unit for the price.

I mounted mine to a gable end bracket and it was the right size. Usually those U shaped bracket will fit a range of sizes. Contact your supplier and see If they will exchange the bracket for the size you need. If not check with a hardware store or maybe an auto parts store to see if they have a muffler Clamp that might fit. I know that Fry's electronics might have what you need, the II one I use to got had alot of TVV antenna, mounting hardware And poles specific to mounting an antenna. The only problem with Fry's they tend to locate only in larger metropolitan areas. Go luck.

this kit fit my 1995 and 1999 ford explorer with the stock radio , the kit was easy to install with the cd / aux radio I purchased from amazon . you will just need to bend some tabs on the radio case and this kit snaps into place . you can choose from 2 different storage pockets. the instructions are very informative . I hope this helps you out .

You will have to buy a mounting kit, and a wire harness(made for your make and model). Cheap items. radio fits in the mounting kit, mounting kit fits in the whole in your dash!

The wiring may be different for the older radio system but the mount kit will work for sure.
