Steering Wheel radio controls
I know some of the later Foci came with radio controls in the steering wheel.

Was this an option for the MK1?

If so, how difficult would it be to do a swap?

My sister has an '07 SES zx4, no steering wheel controls. She has the single disc unit, perhaps it was an option outside of standard SES options then.

Awesomeness. I'll have to look into getting one. Anyone ever done a swap? I'd love to have all the bells and whistles I can get.

You could probably find one in a part out. Its not on the steeringwheel itself, but its on the column just behind where your left hand would be, its very accessible and I love mine.

Im not sure what all would be needed to install it though. I hooked mine up to an aftermarket radio with a kit.

You can buy a kit from crutchfeild to install the steering wheel ontrols to an aftermarket HU, you are getting a different HU - right? lol
