Hey everyone! I got 2007 Expedition Eddie Bauer and dvd drive on RSE system (like one on the pic) reads “bad dvd”. Is there any way to replace only dvd drive on it or I have to buy whole assembly?

Is there any factory plug-and-play upgrade for this kind of dvd system?

Also I want to replace factory radio with android double din unit. Is there any dash kits for oversize units (9”+)? If so - where I can find one?

Any information is very appreciated!

You can find a complete replacement for the RES on ebay at a very reasonable price. Some are brand new.
I replaced my Radio/GPS with a Kenwood unit, a DNX874s, from Crutchfield. It was an easy DIY project. Crutchfield will help you thru it. It has many great features such as Apple Carplay and Waze.
You retain the steering wheel controls for audio.
Be aware if you go this route the RSE will only work on the wireless headphones.

On RSE I saw rca ports. Are they input or output?

I have google maps, Waze, Garmin, and Apple maps on my change out. You loose the audio control on the RES only head phones.
I have backup and front cameras.

Apple car play ( via Iphone)provides map data except Garmin is loaded on the head unit.
Of course Carplay provides lots of other options too.
