Hi guys,

Does anyone know if you can fit the Stereo Steering Column Control from the Focus in to the back of Puma Headunit?

Thanks for looking. :mrgreen:

Cheers

i don't know the answer to your question what i was going to suggest is try and find out what model
stereo ford orginally fitted in the focus and if it's the same as the puma your in business....

just a thought !

Yes It is posibel - I'm working on it, pictures and conections will be on this side as soon as posible....
P.S. I got a control unit from a modeo brand new from ford in germany for about 50 Euro. It dos not fit streat in to the puma, but a few mod. on som glue and it works fine.

I will await your posts also about this Toffi as it sounds good.

I like the idea off steering column control for the stereo as my old car had steering wheel control's and i found them much better than taking your eye's off the road and fumbling about with the unit itself

I'm waiting for the plans too, Toffi. That's a mod I'd like to have

Ive got it in mine but never use it !! It was fiited by the previous owner who took it from his milly. he gave me the wiring pics but dont know if they would be any use to you. Ill have a look at where he got it fitted as i cant remember off the top of my head. I think its pretty simple though if you really want one fitted. I could certainly live without it.

If you could do that mate, it would be !!

This is a 'Mod' that I would do!! :shock: I've always wanted one.
Other Fords with the 6000CD have them, so it should be easy.

The guys going to find the part number asap. he says it costs 249 quid if fitted by ford !!!! I certainly didnt know it was that much and certainly dont think its worth it as i never use it. In fact I dont have the stereo on that much - I love the sound of the exhaust tooooooo much !!!! sad i know !!!

Weird :shock: I'm the same! I have the window open (Even when it's cold!) to hear the Zorst :oops:

[Andy C]

Its well worth it Vas even when you are trying to get over a cold like me at the moment !!!

[Andy C]

Is yours exhaust sorted yet Vas? If not I dont know why you even have to bother to open your window!!!!

My exhaust is only half sorted, as I'm STILL waiting for the centre section.
It's just stupid now, it's been 4 weeks :shock:

I did this mod a few months ago - all you need is to find a Mondeo post '97, Mk 4/5 Fiesta Ghia (or a Focus (and I think some of the last escorts but not sure - was told this by a mechanic at local Ford garage my dad works at) with a steering coloumn remote and take it off and it fits - well the one from a R Reg Fiesta went straight on mine. If you can find a Fiesta its easier to take the whole bottom of the steering coloumn as you can just swap it with the Puma one as they are the same fixings so you dont have to go drilling holes in the existing one. After I fitted it and it worked with the Ford radio I found the adapter thing that came with my Kenwood head unit and plugged it in to that and it works with that too - all for ?10 from a scrap yard.

[Darrone3dr]

Quality!! So is there a connector in the back of the Puma 6000 CD Tuner for the Remote to plug straight in to? Or does it literally work by remote?

Cheers

[panther]

it has a cable on it and plugs straight into the back

[Darrone3dr]

Cool!! Cheers fellas!
