1.0 out of 5 stars doesn't fit my 2007 ford f150 truck, October 25, 2007

These cables don't fit my 2007 ford f150 pickup. Neither cable is even close to the proper dimensions to fit either the existing antenna cable or the jack on the back of the radio. Either the cable is marketed or packaged incorrectly or there is a newer updated version of the cable to fit brand new model year fords. Guess I'll have to look elsewhere for the proper fit since it will cost me as much as I spent on the set to ship it back.

Actually, as it turns out after I found an adapter that fit, the factory radio and antenna in my 2007 ford f150 pick up have what most manufacturers are marketing as a Chrysler antenna cable connection. Go figure.

Used it on a 2005 Ford Taurus. Worked really slick. Easy to use and install.

I purchased this itme to help connect an FM modulator inline between the antenna and the stock radio tuner in my Ford Taurus. In this car (and probably in many Ford vehicles) the radio is actually a two-part unit: one part (including the tuner) in the trunk, with the dash unit being a remote control for the trunk unit. The trunk unit had the antenna connected directly to it using the special Ford connector arrangement.

In order to connect my FM modulator in-line between the antenna and the tuner, I used this kit.

Pros: It seems to work just fine with everything connected, and reception seems good.

Cons: Construction quality is just "so-so" (but what can you expect for this price?) with the ends just lightly crimped on. Also, the adapter end that fits into the tuner unit doesn't lock-in as positively as the stock antenna, so I had to use a large zip-tie to ensure that it wont vibrate loose during vehicle operation.

Recommendation: if you need it, get it. Not sure if any one brand is better than others, and there are other brands available, so be guided by price.
