Replace Stereo for 2007 Escape Hybrid?

[tigerlily67]

Hi, I am looking to replace the stock stereo that came with my 2007 Escape Hybrid. It has a CD navigation (CD long gone) with a disc changer under the seat.

What do you recommend? And are there any replacements or add-ons that will still show me the hybrid battery info? I really don't want to lose this feature.

Thanks

I should add that I am specifically looking for a bluetooth feature to connect my phone. I have a plug in fm receiver. Actually, I've tried several brands, but there is just too much static for calls and music is so-so.

Have you checked crutchfield? They have Dual XDVD251BT. My buddy's uncle got them on his Escape and he likes it. I'll be coming over this weekend to help him install the brake pads and all terrain truck tires on his Silverado project. It's been about 5 months now and I'll ask if it still works.

Replaced the same stereo from the same car recently. Go with Crutchfield, they'll get you everything you need. I did lose the battery and MPG info that the stock stereo showed. Also had to trim a lot of plastic to get the replacement to fit. But otherwise an easy swap.
