2007 Mustang navigation system same as F150?
I have a 2007 GT/CS. I also have a 2007 F150 super crew. The F150 came with the navigation system. I want to upgrade the radio in the F150 but would like to swap the navigation radio from the F150 to the Mustang. I am wondering if the F150 navigation radio is the same one that would have come in the Mustang had I chosen that option when I ordered it. I can't imagine two different navigation radios in 2007 but maybe I am wrong. Does anybody have a picture of the stock navigation system that came in a 2007 Mustang?

You might need to get the radio reprogrammed to recognize the subwoofers, lighting controls, etc. See if all the functions work, if you want, before doing that, but typically the radios need to be programmed to recognize the particular model of vehicle they are in. Cost is around $100 to get that done.

I have the build sheet from when I ordered my 07 Mustang and it listed the navigation as option 58X. My understanding is that in early 2007 it wasn't an option. That one looks identical to my 07 F150 radio except I don't have the chrome on the two top buttons.

He accessed a 'secret' menu were there are a number of different screens that can be accessed. Most of it is changing programming parameters.
The screen shown can show a number of different things, but in early cars, like mine, most are not functional anyways.

To the other poster, yes that is a sensor screen display available on a developer's menu that includes the above info. Not everything is hooked up, but you can display standard time, compass heading, and lateral "G-loads" along with a nifty graph of speed in kph as shown. Other items like system voltage are not connected. Accessing that menu also allows disabling the speed restriction on entering addresses or the full POI menu, which is really worthwhile.

Here's a quick phone camera shot of the Nav radio in an '08 GT. However, I thought the factory only offered Nav beginning in '08? In any event, lots of guys have installed in earlier models, the only issues being that the antenna plug changed at some point (adaptors available) and the vehicle speed was not available to the earliest radios. Neither is a fatal error.

A- The earlier harness's for the radio's do not have a vss signal
or
B- The early Nav radio's dont accept a vss signal?
I'm really inclined to think you meant A but that shouldn't be that hard of a task to add.

When you say that the vehicle speed was not available to the earliest radio's do you mean,
A- The earlier harness's for the radio's do not have a vss signal
or
B- The early Nav radio's dont accept a vss signal?
