Stoney871 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 It will fit but you require a loom adaptor with a steering remote interface and a true double din replacement fascia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenesisGFX Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 thanks for the reply but why do i need interface if i don't have any buttons on my wheel? or you mean the music changing buttons on the side of it? Also would i be able to fit it myself or do i need to take it to the garage? best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I made that mistake. Don't do it, it will not fit flush and you'll end up fuming and wanting to smash everything into a million pieces! Search for my thread about upgrading to a double din, go for the oval upgrade, that seems painless! :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenesisGFX Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Stoney871 Is it true what Ed12 said? Ed can't find your link m8 maybe you can drop a link to it? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 A fair bit of problem when fitting aftermarket radios is that the cages that come with them are too deep for Ford dashes. At the back of a Focus dash is a biggish bulge in the plastic sub-frame that gets in the way. Best ways around this is either a shorter cage or one with a cut-out that matches the shape. Measure the depth from the most prominent part of the sub-frame to the point where the radio faceplate would sit and calculate from there. Judicious usage of tin snips may be an option.
