Ordered 7" Video-Radio-GPS "oem look"

Placed order today for the radio below. I realize it's a
gamble possibly, but what the heck. Visa will aide
if it's indeed a problem once I receive.
-Just looks so good and much better looking than adding a
dbl din kit with aftermarket radio

I looked thru the forum and couldn't find any threads where
someone had purchased this

will this plug in to the current steering wheel controls on my 2011 fx2? Will the voice command button on my steering wheel activate voice on the system?? Is this what ford is currently using on its factory vehicles or is this some type of alternative or knock off seems like a really good piece.

I just emailed the seller to find out if this product is compatible with Ford Sync and if they can email me a copy of the installation instructions. From what I have been reading on Alibaba this is a very good seller to deal with.

It says 'Reverse Camera In' is included does that mean I just unplug the cable for my rear view backup camera and plug it into this unit?

Milk,
Can you explain the 'digital tuner box' !
I thought that was for your home tv, do they have specific digital tuner boxes for vehicles (dumb question I know but I'm not up on my electronic lingo)?

The seller sent me a PDF of the User's Manual (it is generic for several vehicles). Is it possible to post it here for those that are interested? If so, how do I upload it?

The seller is telling me it supports Ford Sync but does not support XM Sirius radio.

I have a Sirius radio plan and my intention is on keeping it, would hate to not have it available in the truck. Any one have any suggestions on how I could set up another satellite radio without it being an eye sore on the dash? I'm not familiar with the radios out there that can support Sirius if someone can point me the the direction.

Could the stock Ford sat antenna on the roof be used to connect to an aftermarket sat radio?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
