Good headunit mounting kit for Ford Focus?

[JuicyJeff 10+ year member]

Mine has cracked clips and rattles. Just wondering what one you ford focus owners have that looks clean and holds it in there tight. I got the scoshe one but i don't have the metal case that came w/ the headunit so i cant really use it. Or figure out how its supposed to mount in there.

I like american international. I have 1000s of their dash kits and they are made better than metra IMO. Hard to find a shop that carries them, more expensive i guess.

yeah i read online though, the metra kit doesn't fit too well in a focus. And how does the metra kit mount, With the metal cage or with clips you screw into the head?

I have the metra kit in my 2008 Ford Focus and have had no issues. holding it up the factory piece it replaced it looks like an exact copy. I am very happy with it.

It uses the plastic clips. I am having no issues with rattles or mounting so far after 1 year.

Not sure what year you have if it like mine or not.

I have a 200 lol. And i would rather have those plastic clips. As i no longer have the metal jacket. But kind of dumb how i have the scoshe one sitting in the basement haha. Oh well
