10dawson Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I have a Fiesta Zetec - is there any way of getting SAT nav in the car? The one that looks built in - not one you buy and put on the dash! Thanks guys Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffo1997 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 you would have to purchase a new screen, head unit, wiring loom, sat nav base and ariel, navigation sd card. its a very dear do if it wasn't specced from the factory you would be looking around £600+ in total and then if your not fitting it yourself you have to pay for the fitting too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10dawson Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Any idea where you can get it all from? Can Ford quote for it all? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffo1997 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 ford can quote for it all but it will be extortionate i would recommend looking on eBay for a scrap zetec or zetec s with the ford nav and get the whole lot or look for a full system on there from people doing Ford to sony conversions bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sportvan Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I have fitted the Sony navigation to my Sport van. Everything works as it should, aftermarket Gps antenna has been used and it is not connected up for traffic. The only problem I have is that it has changed the mileage in the cluster to KM, ad even though miles is there in the display setting I cannot select it! I'm guessing its just programming thing, as everything else works spot on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookey09 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I wanted this doing and had a quote from my local dealer at £1000+, due to re-wiring, centre console swap, new wiring loom, new antennas, etc... Didn't fancy it, so, just stuck my iPad mini on the flat bit of the dash... Works brilliantly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I am planning of fitting the sony sat nav to my car soon and will post up details once its done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I have a Sony system in my car (titanium ) would that mean I was part way there to sat nav if I wanted it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportvan Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 The sat nav is stand alone from the headunit the only defence being is that the dedicated nav unit has shortcut keys on the radio facia. I was able to operate the nav with the standard radio facia in my van before swapping it over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I'm going to ask when I get the chance anyway as I believe I have the basics of part of it. Ie. The Sony unit although centre would need changed. Colour screen and I'm guessing gps antenna as it has emergency assistance. Most probably still too expensive though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sportvan Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 The navy unit just plugs in on the regular plug. Gps is a blue Fakra so any Gps antenna with a Fakra plug will fit. Traffic is done via the antenna, I do not have this connected, when I have time I will get a couple of pics. The sat navy is not used for Sync emergency assistance, that is reliant on your smartphone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10dawson Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 I had that problem before. I spoke to 2 different dealers and one told me its possible but very expensive and one told me its not possible. Just wanted to see if anyone has any photos of doing it/how they done it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divszy Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Sorry to revive this thread, but Ive got it working in my mk7 fiesta bar a few parts. Need the screen cradle and need to find ASAP.

Need the screen cradle and need to find ASAP. Also anyone know what the pink, black and green fakra connections are for Another revival...... The green connector isn't Fakra, it's a four pin connector that the adapter to RCA lead fits to.....it's for the reversing camera. Black on the rear of the nav takes the cars black Fakra lead. It's from the DAB/FM splitter. Pink fakra is an interconnect to the black fakra on the main radio unit; this requires a female/female Fakra 'Z' cable. I found my car already had pins in the black navi connector PINS 12 + 6 (for nav audio) Be advised the navi wiring plug isn't the easiest disassembly. In summary; Remove ziptie Close latch-lock on connector, lift at the pivot, remove gently! There is a area to gently pry, it'll be obvious by this point, I used a small flat blade screw driver...like eleccy one Check the numbers on the plug now you can see them they ran down to the below pictured white connector, I connected two wires from here to the C1 connector PINS 4 + 5 on the rear of the main radio unit The white connector is released towards the bonnet you'll need to find the same colour wires there, multimeter required here to confirm which ones which!!! CONNECTING THEM THE WRONG WAY ROUND CAN DAMAGE THE HS/MS NETWORK. PIN 6 NAV = PIN 4 RADIO UNIT PIN 12 NAV = PIN 5 RADIO UNIT This is the radio C1 connector As a side note I found I didn't have to connect the black fakra, pink fakra or the green connector on the navi screen in order to use it, (my car was on Sony system from factory *Titanium X 2013) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobr Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I have the Ford satnav fitted in my car but I don't use it a it's nowhere near as good as my Garmin Nuvi 65. Apart from that, The Garmin has all the speed camera locations built in and has the maps updated four times a year. I've never come across a way of getting an update for the one fitted.
