Instructions for Removing the Car Radio

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

To remove the original radio, first detach the trim surrounding the radio and climate control: use a plastic lever to avoid damaging it. At this point, unscrew the fixing screws of the radio (located at the four corners) and pull it forward out of its slot. To complete the disassembly, disconnect the relevant plugs: before disconnecting, ensure you have the activation code, which may be required at the first new ignition to avoid rendering the radio unusable.
