Thank you from Louisville Kentucky!
Such a mild Australian accent, you almost sound British. Cheers for the video, will come in handy when I get round to upgrading the stereo in my 2004 estate!
Extremely useful thanks man
Handy video, thanks!
Thank you from São Paulo, Brazil.
Thanks Craig! From David in the UK
I never knew there was such thing as a right hand drive Ford focus
boosted kid productions in the uk or Australia
Australia !!
Apparently you didn't notice you weren't in Kansas anymore
Great Job !!
Thank you for helping me to install radio in ford focus 2004 :)
Is the 2004FORD FOCUS only Single DIIN _ Double DIN not likely to fit ?
@@rubiconnz1754 I put single din, but the old radio it's the same as yours.
Having such hassles with this. Autobarn arguing that a 2din will fit. Me arguing that it will not fit. Less than a minute into your video and you confirm that a 2 din isn't going in.
Also finding the double din not fitting. Did you find a work around?
Great video. Helped me with knowing what I needed to get hold of. Thanks man.
I took wire hanger cut and shaped them and they worked just like the tools. I put a double din in, and had to modify. Re running thru factory wiring. Hope this video helps, getting no sound
nice. can you or someone make a video installing a Radio/screen with a back camera on an older Ford Focus ZTS??
I have the aftermarket stereo power adapter, and the fords stock adapter but I cant seem to plug the big black bulgy socket into anything. Can I just use the wire adapters used that came with the ford?
Hey mate, thanks for the video. Did the AERPRO FP8146 SINGLE DIN FACIA KIT work? I've seen mixed recommendations with some people suggesting the FP8264 instead of the FP8146.
I Got wire harness as urs, (not the steering wheel control)and hooked up... taped extra wires ... but my stereo's fuse keep blowing. checked all the connections from the dash using Multimeter. All r good. My one is a Sony stereo.
Abhi P K we had the same trouble with ours. Get the next highest fuse rating.
I would like to switch the car stereo installed by the previous owner. It was installed with the aero pro fascia kit. Any idea how to get the aeropro out? Don’t want to be breaking anything!
And no, never did a car stereo myself, but willing to give it a whirl before I drop $$ on someone else doing it.
Cali!!
Anyone know where I can find the part Aerpro App056 or a similar part in the USA? I'm having trouble finding it on the internet. I'd like to avoid splicing wires together.
Is the FORD FOCUS 2004 Likely to take a double DIN head unit ?
I pulled my radio out with large wires i made into prongs. The actual tool is only like 6 bucks though
having trouble getting my radio to power on. Everything is connected, am I missing something in importance of the order of hooking it up? Do I need to ground something? Help appreciated
crabmeat88 have you potentially blown a fuse?
chiverskid how do I find out? The stock radio was locked when I purchased it but it at least had power and came up with 'locked' on it while plugged in
I am undecided. Most new vehicles are going double din. But a single din appears to be easier.
Just some advice you should always start from head unit to car instead of the other way around and you don’t need to tape up any of the other wires because there is no power running through them they are just accessory wires and with the mic push bike break cable and some tape is good to use to feed the cable through you can get some for like 50p👍🏼
Why would you not show the dash face removal?
Dude is that an st170?
Awesome man. Will it work with the steering wheel controls with an adapter as well?
Abhi P K certainly will do if you buy the SWC adapter. These are pretty expensive though (over $100) so I didn't bother.
Cheers Mate
inside33 where did u get it for $30 bucks?
inside33 thanks mate
By the way other countries do have the Ford focus, some of those countries drive on the left, shock horror, which means (oh my God it cannot be true) right hand drive cars!!!
my 2003 ford focus radio doesnt look like this :/
You could have least showed it finished and working.
