started fitting it today

cool did you get the steering wheel adaptor lead aswell ?

the plan is something similar. Will be fitting the stereo normally tomorow, then once im back to work next week will start the butchering of the 6000 cd.

im hopping that with the removable face plate of the jvc i wont have to be so drastic cutting the old head unit apart.

hi chaps,

just an update on my progress. me new Focus turned up sat along with a jvc kw-av60bt along with a fitting kit and facia adapter the same as Brigante's,
decided against the full facia in the end as i will be attemping a dummy face plate aswell

Planning on fitting it all tomorow once ive recovered from all the xmas spirit i've had!!

will post up some pics once im done

Thanks for all the replies chaps,

Just to clear up a few things, not really that bothered about sat nav i have it on my phone and rarely have to use it.
Other than that i like the idea of dvd playback but tbh im not sure id use it much, would be nice to have never-the-less.
Much more important would be to have a usb port on the back of the unit. Most of my music is now stored on a usb stick, since having over £1000 of cd's stolen it has made me tentative about leaving cd's in the car.
The ability to take calls thru the unit would be nice too.
Another thing i would like it to have is a detachable faceplate, but theres not many i have seen out there with this feature.
Would also like the option of adding a reversing camera at some point, looks like a great add-on.

I did like the look of the unit liam just got, but doubt i would go for an non-brand unit.
i have primarily always had Kenwood stereo's in my cars, mainly down to liking the aesthetics of their units but also their great sound.

quite like the idea of vinyl wrapping the facia, might have to go for that option.
is it easy to do or would you leave it to a profesional ??

As for car security, well being on the recieving end a few times i primarily would like a removable faceplate
but if not i will be looking into beefing up the Alarm.

Hi stoney,

will be sticking in a double din stereo as soon as i get the car.
probably have a go at the brake light/ford badge mod first ... seems within my skillset
quite fancy the bonnet struts and would also like to add a spoiler at some point probably before i get all the trim colour coded.

cant wait
