Hi,

I have a Ford Escort Ghia from 1998 which still has the built-in
Traffic 3000 radio-tape player.
I am more than sick of it and would like to replace it with a
mp3-cd-radio player (optionally with a SD-slot).

Assuming I find the unit fulfilling my requirement, how difficult is it
then to have it installed by a good fitter (which good fitters by the
way ?). Do you have some names to suggest me ?

Thanks.

As long as you get the correct fascia and harness adaptors (Autolelads
FP-07-00 and PC2-08-4), it's literally a 5 minute job and something
most people could easily figure out for themselves.

Thanks for your message.
Do I also need some special tools to remove the installed radio, as I
have the impression I need some sort of blades.

Then you mention the PC2-08-4 item which looks like a pair of
connectors. Assuming that I buy a radio with ISO connectivity, will
that plug in to these connectors ?

Thanks.

You'll need a pair of DIN radio removal keys.

Yes - all decent units now come with an ISO that will plug straight
into the adaptor.
