Fiesta stereo upgrade

[Garry002]

Hi

ive been reading and reading think I've over read to be honest lol. I've just bought myself a late 2008 mk7 fiesta but I'm looking to upgrade the stereo with something with sat nav built in but want to keep the stock steering wheel controls working and have a reverse cam if possible. 

Has anybody got any ideas for a full kit or a shopping list to start getting I'm not looking to spend loads here but don't mind about the £200 range?

 

thanks for any help in advance

Sadly due to the proprietary shape of the dashboard you can pay over £100 just for the fascia plate and adapters.

You can can a Sony unit with Sat nav built in, however they're from the facelift Fiesta so not sure if it would work with yours without swapping wiring looms etc and retrofitting SYNC.

you will pay around 100-120 mark for the complete kit but it is certainly is possible I've done it.

you will need:

• Double Din Fascia Adaptor 
• Steering wheel Control Adaptor
• Aerial Adaptor
• Stereo Patch Lead

Ah perfect do you mind me asking what head unit you bought?

ive seen the 2 din fascia on online but wasn't sure some of the stereos ive looked at just say to patch the steering controls in but other places said I need the interface cable think this where I was getting confused lol

Iv'e just taken my head unit out of my old 2008 Mk6 Fiesta and I'm looking to sell.

Its a pioneer sph-da120 and It would come with the harness and steering wheel interface adapter too.

let me know if you're interested.

He has the mk7 so doubt the steering wheel/ adapter harness would be the same.
