    I have to take the radio out of my focus sometime to replace a small bit of damaged dash that is bugging me. As I am at it I think I will fit a Parrot CK3000 or CK3100. I don't feel like cutting or joining any wires on the loom of the car.

    Does anyone know where to get the connectors to go from the Ford design ones to the ISO ones used by Parrot and vise versa?

    I've got a lot of stuff from Caraudio.ie in the past and always found them fine. Otherwise, try your local motor factors/car audio shop, they usually have harness adapters in stock.

    Ford dealers do packages of facia adaptors and ISO connectors, and are very reasonable.

    Thanks all!

    I will try the main dealer first and move on from there.

    That is exactly the item. It needs to loop out of the ISO connectors again so I can keep the original Ford 6000 CD/Radio... which I quite like.

    Thank you!

    I have the Parrot CK3000 Evolution installed using one of these connections and it all works seemlessly, just a matter of clicking everything into place...you can't really go wrong.

    That is the one I think I will go for. The CK3100 has a handy LCD screen alright, but the 3000 looks so much tidier.
