Description of 📻 PAC RadioPRO4 RP4-FD11 Radio Replacement Interface for Optimal Performance in Select Ford Vehicles

Data controlled accessory and navigation outputs. Factory amplified Systems will not fade as neither the aftermarket radio or the RP interface have the ability to control the amplifier’s fader. 2008 F-250/350/450: Not compatible with model trim XL (fleet vehicles). These vehicles do not have the necessary CAN bus signals. 2006-2007 Ford Freestyle: Does not retain RSE. 2006 Lincoln Zephyr: Does not retain the THX amplifier.

Best price on the market - auto electronics

Works great, instructions are clear and easy to follow. Best price, the photo shows the steering wheel adapter only, but everything needed to fit the aftermarket radio is included.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Generally satisfied

I bought this to keep the SWC for my Ford Edge. I'm generally happy with it and was able to keep most of the steering wheel controls but 3 functions didn't work - voice, phone, ok. Vol, Track and Mode functions worked flawlessly.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Great steering wheel adapter

This adapter worked exactly as advertised and you could even program additional functions to press and hold buttons instead of just pressing. After soldering the wires that were to be used to the wire harness that came with the new radio, the installation went very smoothly. The manual was very clear which line is which.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Useless functions

does what it should!

I installed this on my 2008 Expedition and was able to keep the steering wheel and rear seat controls. Most of the pens matched the factory color coding so they were easy to install. The only question was about the return wire used to automatically turn on the rear camera as the colors didn't match. I assumed, and I was right, so everything works as it should. The best part about investing in these interfaces is that you don't have to cut factory cables. The wiring harness for the PAC plugs…

Pros
  • Accessory with data management and navigation outputs
Cons
  • I will add later

and it works much better. The steering now works perfectly.

I had to contact their engineers to fix some bugs in the firmware. It didn't properly detect reverse in my car (2007 Ford Freestyle) so the GPS thought I was stuck in reverse the entire time and kept telling me to reverse. The steering wheel remote control didn't work either. They sent me a custom patch and it works much better. Steering works great now. Every once in a while it doesn't detect reversing, so the reversing camera doesn't start automatically. If I shift from reverse gear and back,

Pros
  • Factory amp systems will not go away as neither the secondary radio nor the RP interface can control the amp fader.
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Worked with my radio and car with no problems.

Used this to install a Clarion NX404 head unit in a 2008 Ford Expedition where I wanted to keep the factory steering wheel and rear seat controls. I checked this out on Crutchfield to see what I needed and then bought it on Revain. This replaces the extra wiring harness you would normally connect your main unit to. Directions are very clear and wire colors are 1:1 match with Clarion head unit wire harness. The instructions are very simple. Be sure to set the dial to match the setting number of…

Pros
  • 2006-2007 Ford Freestyle: Does not retain RSE
Cons
  • Nothing here
