Changing Stereo in a Fiesta Zetec

Postby russellclow on Tue May 09, 2006 4:31 pm

Hey guys

I have a Fiesta Zetec 16V. I'm wanting to change the strereo to something more pleasing to the eye, but I've realised that the strereo is alot bigger than a "normal" stereo that u can buy from ebay/stereo shops etc.

If I pulled out the one I have, will I have a big fat empty space, which couldn't be fully filled by a smaller stereo, or what?

I haven't taken the time to pull out the stereo yet - in all honesty, I'm quite scared to incase I break something and end up I cant change it! :p

Also: I have two 100W Kenwood speakers fitted into the boot of my car, but they aren't plugged in. I have a few red wires hanging out the back, but I can't seem to find a place to plug them into the Kenwoods. Does anyone know if I need an adapter or if I'm just being thick? :)

Thanks for yee help!

For the stereo just go to halfords and buy a facia adaptor - it will cover up half of the hole and your stereo will fit nicely into the single din slot it provides.

Ade :D

No not halfrauds lol!!! ebay is ya man, or talkaudio, halfords will charge rediculous prices, you can get these adaptors for about a fiver if you look around, and the pins are about a quid, all done for £7 posted, if you can't find them, send me a pm and I'll point you in the right direction
