Exclamation upgrading focus head unit to something the same size

hi all.. recently bought a new head unit. its a double-din type so i presumed it would fit but about 10mm too
so rather than cut up the dash im curious to know if any one knows of a unit which will fit the focus perfectly as i do not like the cheapo bit of halfords plastic that sits under most upgraded stereos.

cheers

You won't find any aftermarket, aftermarket HU's tend to be either single or double din.

Maybe another Ford unit?

yeah i think your right.. i just assumed it was a double.. disapointed.

do you know where i can get a fascia for a mk1focus that only has one slot.. because i hate the cheap plastic dummy cover.
