christopher102792 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hey everyone! I have just gotten a ford fiesta MK 7 2010 ZETEC. I have been looking into changing the stereo and can't bring myself to add an aftermarket stereo to the car due to the ugly look in this car. I want to add the sony stereo fitted to some of the fiesta's. This is what I have Standard Stereo. I want to add this Sony Stereo.. I was wondering if anyone has upgraded their stereo to this? Where to buy this and would it even work? Does the sony stereo have an built in amplifier? My old Pioneer stereo has mosfet 50Wx4. I cant find the specifications of the sony stereo anywhere? I am not sure if I could add a sony stereo from a 2013-2015? If anyone could help me clear some things up, It would be helpful. Many Thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddyOS Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 IIRC I'm pretty sure it's a straight swap, but I'd wait for 'proper' Fiesta owners to give their answer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I swapped mine in a 2010, only thing I found is the new blue screen won't work. I just used the fascia and head unit, then bought new Speakers from Ford as they were very reasonable. As mentioned in that linked thread a couple of buttons don't work, but only because they're not present on the original facia. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you replaced the old stereo as well as the fascia and the buttons still did not work? Like mute etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was only 1 or 2 buttons, I forget exactly which. It's because it's a network, which the screen is part of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning I could get better sound It has better DACs in and a more powerful amp, but the biggest gain will come from replacing the Speakers too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
