Car stereo for Fiesta 2008-2011

Hello,

I've come across quite a few sites where you can find car radios designed exclusively for the new Fiesta (because I love my car, but changing the car radio is a hassle, and the facades for inserting single or double DIN ones really don't appeal to me).

Here's a little example of these radios, but this is just one site among many others:

So I find radio options that stay completely in harmony with the car very appealing, but I have serious doubts about the reliability of these radios :s

I'd like to open the debate here and maybe even find some people who have ordered them and who could give me their opinions :)

Thanks in advance!

Configuration: Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) / Firefox 3.6.28

    Do you want answers regarding this car radio?

    Go to this forum: https://forum-auto.caradisiac.com/forum/998-son-multim%C3%A9dia/

    Sign up and ask your question there; they will likely share the same opinion that this car radio is garbage.

    P.S.: I'm the only one in this forum in the car radio category; I've been answering everyone for 3 months.

    long live the modernity of cars

    some cars necessarily need a car radio because there’s a GPS that works with the air conditioning etc....

    on big audio installations, there are people who install a car radio in the glove compartment or under the seats and who relocate the screen or they do everything with the remote control

    In fact, I see that it's not so crowded after all :o

    But on the other hand, the manufacturers are stupid; if they made radios like that but from a brand, it would be amazing :o

    It fits well in the cabin and everything. Here, I keep looking for photos of people who have changed theirs in their Fiesta, and there really aren't many, and on top of that, it's really ugly...

    As for the speakers, I won't overthink it; I'll check out the high-efficiency ones, at least I'll get good sound...

    But it's too bad that I can't put a small central station in there :s
    I've looked a bit at the expensive Pioneer double DINs, and there are really some at affordable prices :p but I won't chew on the €200 for the trim at all :o And like I said, it's ugly :o

    They really mess things up by creating crazy designs for the cars, then for the accessories, they make half-assed stuff that looks like nothing :o

    yeah but I'm just going to stick with the one I have because I want to have good sound but also something classy that looks good...

    if it's to make something cheesy like Jacky's, I might as well stop :s

    maybe they'll have the good idea to think about the design of their face...

    Honestly..
    it's a super enriching dialogue. But stick to simple words because between the missing "s", the agreement errors, etc... you must have bought your driver's license because I doubt you can understand the questions in the driving theory test and even less read the signs on the road if they contain more than a drawing!!!
