You should be able to find answers to all your questions doing a search in the 2004-present forum.

 

Speakers i believe your remove the door panels, and you gotta made two U hooks out of like a coat wires and stick it into the holes on the stockheadunit, push them to the sides ( left goes left, right goes right ) and pull it out. As far as installing, idk never did a sound system.

 

I just went through the replacing the HU on my 06 F150. I bought a Ford tool on e-bay for 5 bucks that essentially looks like a large plastic tongue depressor that is used to simply, and slowly, pry up the cover from around the HU. There are clips that slide into place to hold it in place. Looks simple when you have it apart. I only bring this up because you may not have the same setup that Mister B shows in his Pix with the ashtray. Mine did not have the same pullout ashtray like his. ( Looks like he has the King Ranch or HD and he did a great job on the photos... ) Good luck…..
