  • Fitting the genuine Ford ISOFIX fixing kit to a Ford Focus MK2 and MK2.5. The kit is cheap and easy to fit so you can be safe with an ISOFIX or latch car seat for your little one.
    Here I'm using the Mountain Buggy Protect car seat with the ISOFIX base.
    This install relates to important safety related equipment and should be left to a professional if you are in any doubt as to how to accomplish the install. This is not a DIY video and is for entertainment purposes only.

    Thanks for the video - also worked on my 2012 Ford Focus MK3 that didn't have ISOFIX as standard.

    You're a clever bugger for sure. That's your part of the job done but I do reckon Mrs Badgertronix is the actual clever one in this case.
    Congratulations to you both on the soon to be bundle of joy. Another UA-cam star about to be born !!!

    Hello! great job, i only have one question, there is no place to hook the 3rd hook that normally goes behind the seat onto a 3er hook, how did you solve that? or just ran the car seat with the two isofix from the bottom only? thanks!

    The "Top Tether" sticker that you show - do you know why it's there? I cannot find a top tether mounting point in my 2008 Ford Focus hatchback, even though Top Tether is discussed at length in the manual. Super confusing.

    I was estimating the bolts should be torqued to 35NM/26lb ft, as the lower seatbelt bolt and the front seat lower anchor bolt are also torqued to that spec. What do you think?

    • @Badgertronix
      @Badgertronix  6 років тому

      That's probably somewhere close to what it should be. I just did it by feel. Cheers

    Video is 1 1/2 years old now. Would be good to revisit the bolt tension to make sure they haven't vibrated loose. Keen to know if you find any issues? Loctite maybe?

    • @Badgertronix
      @Badgertronix  5 років тому +1

      The bolts came with loctite on them. No issues in the 3 years I ran them. Don't have that car anymore

      Minivans are coming back intwo2 vogue.
      Kids now a days are driven two2 school in SUV's.
      So young kids that are seen in their mama's SUV are not gonna buy a SUV when they get older. Minivan's are a great value.

      When we started having kids my line was

      So as the world turns things come and go
      So from wagons to mini vans to suv's back to wagons back to mini vans ...... and so on and so on...
      Pretty soon the roads will have tracks and we'll all have our own bubbles that hook up two2 the track and a robot will get you two2 your destination
      Well at least that's what Elon Musk says.
