About the iDatalink KIT-FOC1 Dash and Wiring Kit
Install a new radio in your Focus
Install a new radio in your Focus
You bought a 2012-18 Ford Focus — it's a great vehicle, but its dashboard makes it difficult to upgrade the factory radio. The iDatalink KIT-FOC1 factory system adapter (along with the Maestro ADS-MRR module, sold separately) gives you everything you need to install an aftermarket double-DIN (4" tall) stereo and wire it up to your Focus. With any car stereo, this package retains your backup camera (if equipped), along with your steering wheel audio controls.
iDatalink to the rescue
Install an iDatalink-compatible car stereo from Alpine, JVC, Kenwood, Sony, or Pioneer, and you'll also retain your car's SYNC features, including hands-free calling and music streaming. You'll also retain the fader control and full functionality of your factory amplifier, along with your rear seat entertainment system (if present). Your climate controls will appear on your new car stereo's touchscreen, and you can set up gauges to check engine performance and other vehicle data, such as tire pressure, battery voltage, and "door ajar" warnings. You'll be able to choose which gauges you'd like to appear on the screen, and you'll even be able to check the engine codes when a warning light comes on.

The piece fits really well on my car. No obvious gaps between the dash pad and the plastic
