Changing My Stock Radio In Fiesta 2003

Featured Replies

Hi,

This is my first post! I have recently obtained a Ford Fiesta 2003 as a present from my parents as my first car. I am wanting to change the stock radio which came with the car (the triple section 4500 RDS). I have been looking at possible radios to replace the old one with but I wondered if there would be any cable swapping required or whether I would just be able to use an adapter.

Here are the radios I am looking at:

I would really appreciate any advice you have on fitting these radios! I realise I need to cut away the three sections on the dash and a fascia.

Thanks allot,

Charlie Wood

Did you not have to buy the single heater control? 

Any info on what to do or what's needed to add a single or double din radio would be appreciated. X
