Ok, so I will try doing it myself... not much experience with this.

I would by this:

do I need antenna cable? http://www.amazon.com/Metra-40-CR10-Chrysler-Antenna-Adapter/dp/B0002BEQNE/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_z

Am I missing anything? Bluetooth should work fine with my android on this even though it says iphone?

Or this HU

that sony head unit is an okay deal, the alpine however is not. if you don't want touch screen but double din then http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_91058_Pioneer-FH-X820BS.html is a better choice.

antenna adapter is for a chrysler not a ford btw. and yeah you need an adapter if you want to keep using regular radio sometimes.

Thanks I got in touch with someone at crutchfield.ca. Finally will be going with a Pioneer FH-X721BT for 170$ including the dash module + 30$ for the wire harness

before you pull the trigger keep in mind they are LED heavy so brightness may be an issue at night.

yes I have read some reviews and this came up the most. but some people posting work around in the settings to dim it down to a comfortable level

For sure it should hve a night setting
