F6 UTE - Track Bound EVO III - Member 3,367 Member For: 20y 6m Gender: Male Location: Strapped in and holding on Posted 10/01/05 01:38 PM Share Posted 10/01/05 01:38 PM Ford said no they won't do it from factory... But I can get hold of the LCD screen/whole ICC section and the module ( as everyone can, me just cheaper....) I was wondering if anyone has fitted it to a ute, or atleast seen it fitted... A sedan has been done, I know that. What's involved?? anyone???Thanks. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/15087-icc-in-a-ute/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know that, and that's no problem...The only problem I can see is controlling the dual zone climate??

It definitely has the Premium ICC with dual zone climate control.So yes, it can be done.

Standard sound would be running an XT loom, or in your case an XL loom, but with the premium sound it runs a fairmont ghia loom I'm pretty sure. Plus the colour icc is worth thousands. Its a pain in the ass and its frustrating that ford has intergrated climate control and sound system in one.

Surely when a car is ordered and has to be built and you wait months for it they could do anything, the dash of a ute is the same as a sedan so what gives.Vent over, spleen intact.

I can get the colour screen and module, prolly just need the temp sensor, and plug that in.... getting more promising..cheers, any more info welcome Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/15087-icc-in-a-ute/#findComment-208542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 13/01/05 10:00 AM Share Posted 13/01/05 10:00 AM Well, if I order a new ute with prem sound, it shouldn't be a drama then because it would come with the required loom, yeah? BABONG!! Sorry, in a ute you can option "Pretige Sound" as distinct from "Premium Sound". The difference being "Prestige sound" having the same display as standard unit, but capable of 6 disc's in the slot! (not entirely sure about speaker packages though) "premium Sound" having the larger colour screen & also 6 disc's.(only available for sedans) ......Hope this helps!Mark..........To answer your question, no it won't have the correct wiring loom.
