2005 Ford Focus Radio Removal

[jerloper]

I am trying to find out how hard it is to remove a factory stereo in a 2005 Ford Focus ZX4. They don't have the wonderful 4 holes on both sides of the radio that made radio removal so easy with previous fords. I just hope you don't have to take appart the whole dash board like with my 96 cavalier what a pain in the arse. Any help would be great.

Thanks

They have instructions for 2005 Focus radio removal but they show previous models not the 2005

I have'nt been to carstereohelp.com in awhile, but when I visited yesterday, I noticed that they charge you for certain instructions (they didn't use to). If you still can't find anyone that knows how to do it, your best bet is to go to Crutchfield.com, and order a Crutchfield Car Stereo Starter Kit for $4.99. It includes MasterSheets for your '05 Focus (which shows you the best way to install a new receiver, speakers (front and rear), and antenna), Crutchfield's Satellite Radio Installation Guide, Crutchfield's Mobile Video Installation Guide, and Crutchfield's iPod Installation Guide. With all that stuff, you'll never have another car stereo installation question that can't be answered. And plus, if you ever lose the MasterSheets, you can always log back on to your Crutchfield account, and download them with Adobe Acrobat reader.
