Ford Focus Mk2: How to add bluetooth audio & USB charging ports
Two small annoyances with my daily driver Ford Focus Mk2 are that the radio has no bluetooth connectivity, and the 12v lighter socket does not switch off with the ignition - if I leave a USB charger in the socket, it might run the battery flat if I leave the car parked for a few days.
So in this video I'm going to add a bluetooth module to the radio which connects to the Aux input, and also install some USB charging sockets in the glovebox which do switch off with the ignition.
This mod can also be done on other cars with the same 6000 CD radio unit, e.g. Ford Mondeo, Ford Transit, etc.
