I just ordered this kit (which I got for $60 brand new!). Anyone ever install this kit? I was told it will work with my 2008 non-nav system with the shaker 500. I only care about integrating my cell phone (hands free) into my radio system. The other stuff it does I can do without. So, would a dealer still need to program it after I did the install?

Any input would be great..

Thanks

Subscribing! I have always wanted the hands free option in my '08. Please post back when you get it installed...

The instructions that I saw online stated it was for a 2009 Mustang. Where did you see that it will work on a 2008?

It might. Found this on partscheap.com:
Installation Note: The Ford Sync system for the 2008-2009 Mustang will only work with non-navigation radios.
There are reports that the Sync system will work on a 2008 Job 2 Mustang and newer with the Navigation system, but voice recognition will not be supported for Sync features, bluetooth phone support is still functional as is manual operation
of digital media devices such as iPod, Zune, USB Flash Drives, and other supported mp3 players.

^^What he said.. There are web sites and other postings on the internet that states the same thing. 2008 will work as long as its not the NAV system.

slickman - what is the build date of your car? I would like to know if you get this working with your OEM radio...

From what I can see it is including a wiring harness and that has all the adapters to completely replace the existing harness. What I don't know is all the specific modules that it is including and their purposes. I can see why it is saying "non-nav" though because this wiring harness probably isn't designed for it as it's a preconfigured all in one plug and play. I don't see why it wouldn't work.

A few tips though if you're having trouble go through the how-to guides and find the ones installing navigation units. It'll show you how to access/undo everything. Also, I'm pretty sure the motors dealing with the Climate control *****, or atleast the doors for switching from AC/Defrost/etc are back there, so be sure not to stuff everything in there.

Keep us posted, thanks! Good find if it works!

I think its June of 2008 but I need to check.
