The best strut brace for the Mk1 Focus is made by FocusSport. Its from USA only but you can get them sometimes on eBay or the forums. Its the only one that, once fitted, allows full unrestricted access to the fuse box. I had one, in chrome, on my 1.8 Focus.

I dont have any pics myself. There are some in the link below on page 2. This was my actual brace that I sold to him when I sold my Focus.
