Like this http://astrium-electronics.com/ford-gee-2865.html I like it because it looks factory, they say they program it to match your factory system ad it is plug and play. It has pretty good reviews on the Dodge forums but I can't find much of anything on a Mustang. It is a Toronto company and you can buy these radios for 450 on kijij. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-car-audio-gps/city-of-toronto/ford-edge-explorer-focus-mustang-oem-gps-dvd-system/595778011?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true

I have not dealt with this company but have with other branded Chinese oe style heads.
Hit and miss quality and interfacing in the past.
Being a local company, if they directly support their customers I'd be willing to give them a try...I had to deal with American resellers in the past and typical response was "we've never seen that before" yet I've had 6/10 units exhibit the same issue.
Getting software patches can take a while as well...
Keep in mind you get what you pay for
Kenwood with maestro ftw if looking for quality product and interface. Maestro (idatalink) is a Canadian owned company based in Montreal if your feeling patriotic

Thanks for the input 12vguy. After many texts and stuff I found out the brand is actually Flyaudio from china. They are just using Astrium photos. I'm gonna pass.
