iPhone iPod Charging Mount

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Accessory kit

You can purchase an aftermarket mount for charging the iPhone to fit in the glove compartment on the centre console, to the left of the radio. Installation requires some DIY skills to achieve an aesthetically pleasing result, for example, by covering the mount with carpet to disguise it. Obviously, a connection will need to be made with the original radio from which auxiliary outputs can be conveniently positioned just below the handle of the glove compartment in question.
