I'm looking for help on where to find an antenna wire adapter. The picture is of Ford's new DVD nav unit out of a 2006 Expedition - I believe that it is made by Pioneer. The 2005 F-350 that it is going into has a male antenna plug - unsure of the nomenclature, but it is the kind of antenna wire end that I have seen in every other car that I've had.

Thanks for any help!

Some newer fords have an antenna lead somewhere in the passenger kick panel that has a regular end on it. Check if your's does. It'll just be a male plugged into a female. If you have this, you're in luck. If you're replacing the factory unit, just run an extension from the kickpanel up to your new deck. Or if you're trying to modulate something, simply plug-and-play.

Geepherder,

Thanks. My post may have been vague, however. I have the male plug antenna lead that fit into the stock radio. It, however, won't plug into what you see in the picture. I am trying to find an adapter to make one work with the other.

That almost looks like a VW (bosch) type antenna end. If it is you are looking for a motorola to bosch antenna adaptor like the vwa from Scosche. www.scosche.com
