Removing and Replacing the Car Radio

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Car stereo

Using a plastic tool to avoid damaging the bodywork, pry at the sides of the climate control panel to release the plastic clips and remove it. Again, using a plastic tool, pry at the sides of the console panel and then remove it to access the screws securing the radio. Unscrew the radio mounting screws to completely slide the radio out of its housing. Carefully remove the radio by lifting it to disconnect the connectors located at the back. Install the new radio using the new conversion cables, reversing the previous steps.
