I know how to configure it so that I can listen to music from the speakers and the movie from the headsets already. My question is: How do I listen to the movie on the speakers and NOT the headsets?

Mailblues - Yes, I still have the extra remove. E-mail me offline if you're interested in purchasing. I've set my e-mail address to display in my preferences, so if you click my user ID, it should show up. Thanks!

The problem I have is that I cannot hear the movie on the speakers. I can already hear music from the speakers, and the movie throught the headphones simultaneously. Can anyone help with this? Thanks!!

I have an '03 Expedition with DVD system. I can't figure out how to hear the movie through the main speakers INSTEAD of through the wireless headphones! I've tried pressing 2/4 at the same time, as well as 3/5. Nothing works. Can anyone help me?? Thanks!

I have a 2004 Ford Expedition with no NAV or entertainment system. It has a 6 CD built in player with a Sat button, but no Sat radio.I would like to install a direct connect IPOD connector however don't know what the best ones are or the most important question. How do I remove the radio to connect it to the IPOD connector? Comments, experiences or recommendations please?

If you have a button on your 2004 radio that says CD/Aux you can buy a great aux input adapter (http://www.logjamelectronics.com/piefrd03aux100.html) from Logjam Electrontics that will give you much better sound than something like a FM modulator.
 
For 2003 or earlier models, we are subject to FM modulators like this one that plug directly into your radio's antenna port: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-FLly6yw4cys/cgi-bin/prodview.asp?i=142FMMOD01. These wired versions are much better than the wireless ones.

I found instructions on removing the radio on the internet. They are as follow
 
There are 2 screws above the gauges holding the trim piece to the dash. Remove them with 9/32 socket then slowly pull the trim cover away the dash being careful not to crack the latching clips. You can then disconnect the wire harnesses from the headlight switch and center area controls to make access easier. The radio can be removed without disconnecting the switches, but it's more work to pull/hold the dash trim toward you while removing the radio than it's worth. There are 2 screws to remove at the bottom of the radio bracket and you're done. Do the reverse to reinstall.
 
I also bought the PIE ipod adapter that can be controlled
through the radio, On a 2004 Ford Expedition the car must have a SAT button with no SAT radio attached. NO NAV system or rear entertainment DVD player. The device is -FORD 2004 IPOD ADAPTER [PIE FRD03-POD/S] (FOR USE INTO 16 PIN SAT PORT) (RADIOS WITH SAT BUTTON). The sound is excellent however it did stop working once, I called PIE and they
told me to reset the device via disconnecting the negative battery cable. SO far the problem has not reoccured, but I've had it only 2 days. The device is fairly expensive at $169 for logjam but hopefully it'll last and works like a
factory install.
 
The above device from crutchfield is about $30 and I've
ordered on for my 2001 ford escape. It should work as well as the aftermarket 10CD changers from the last generation

So what about if you have a 6disc indash changer, and the dvd entertainment system? Then how do you do it? I've found a simple way to get my ipod on my stereo for now is by hooking it up to the RCA jacks on the DVD player on the ceiling but then you have the wires coming down from the ceiling to the ipod? Is there a way to get those same rca connections from the back of the head unit? This is on a 2003 Exped Eddie Bauer.
 
Any help would be appreciated.
