What material ideas are there for using as a plate around the facia of the radio. I have a current model focus zetec, so I was considering something with the look of carbon fibre, but what other options are there that I could use. I don't want vynal etc as this would not suit the look of the car. Materials must be of dark colour. Head unit that will be installed into there will be a HX-D2 or Sound Monitor if I feel rich.

Even though its not getting cheaper, im a sucker for cf.

Get a cf gearknob, Razo have some good universal ones.

Make a rough mdf frame, Bog it up, Sand to shape. paint.

Think fibreglass, look at some other people installs in the rides section and use your imagination.

Sorry I couldnt be more help, Its late

Thats wot id be doing making a panel and putting some bog to shop it then a good coat of metalic silver would do the job

I have a Focus LX I'm looking for a kit to mount a standard sized double din system .. does anyone sell one?

Googled "Aftermarket parts for Ford Focus" and got this:

Tried .. still chasing it up for me .. no-one seems to have one for the 2006 model yet .. should I look for a custom place? .. know anywhere?

Sorry buddy i live in QLD dont really know any shops in VIC but being the new 2006 model may take a few more months try ebay as the othere fella said maybe theres something in europe you could import.

any good shop/installer should be able to do it for you. just have a look at their work first! Spectrum Productions-where abouts in vic are you?

In Traralgon .. in Gippsland mate .. happy to travel to melb to get the work done though.



Cheers,

Brett.
