Default I am now a proud owner of a Fiesta ST.. and i need your help! (stereo related)

hey guys,
first post and its a stereo related problem. i have just bought a 2006 fiesta ST but its not the face lift model. it has the standard stereo, three parts one above the other but also has the ESP and heated windscreen buttons running down the side. is there any way to fit a flip out or double din head tv head unit in it or am i stuck with the standard? if i can fit a new one which ones do you recommend? thanks for taking the time to read this guys.

yes, you either cut the 2 black bars out from between the 3 radio sections and fit an adapter plate, or you can buy a complete new fascia with the right size hole.

Don't bother with tv headuint, or anything motorised, they always go wrong. Get yourself a nice pioneer unit.

Every single motorised units I've ever had have gone wrong at some point or other. Maybe I've just been unlucky lol

I bought a double din touchscreen from eBay with sat nav bluetooth ect, for about 260 . Qualair I think the name was its not all singing and dancing like the big brands but it has lots of functions,
It's something similar to this
eBay item number 221151469560
Just a suggestion to consider
