Hi all - I'm new, so apologies if I'm posting in the wrong section!

I've just bought a 2001 Focus Ghia, which has the original 5000 stereo unit fitted. I wanted to upgrade this, so bought a 6006 unit off Ebay. As the 6006 appears in my stereo handbook, I assumed it would be a direct replacement, but unfortunately the plugs are different. From what I can see by searching online, stereo fittings were the same from 98 to 04, but one Ford chap said that they changed in 2001. Does anyone know how I can identify a Ford CD player that uses the pre-2001 fittings? I don't want to buy another redundant unit!!
