Cellphone Mounting Magnets for your Ford Figo

So after I added the new radio, I wanted an easier way to place my phone on the dashboard. A simple, cheap way that I found on bidorbuy was to use  magnets.

This meant sticking a strong magnet to the back of my phone. Worrying, I admit. But, as the results show, it seemed to work. I have had the magnet on the phone for just over 3 months and everything works perfectly.

 The magnet here is on the back case of my phone and on the air vent in my Ford figo

Here you can see the Sony App display on my phone that controls the radio

(Part 2) Replacing the standard radio in a Ford Figo (unboxing my new radio )

Here are some pictures of the radio I chose. I took this model because it was in my price range and importantly had the Sony App Remote feature. App Remote allows you to operate your radio from the screen of your smartphone. I thought this would be a cool feature to add. Though the Ford Figo has space for a double din radio, the standard radio is actually a single din. If you want to put in a double din radio you would need to move(with  a hack saw!) some of the interior plastic brackets. This will not damage the car but it was something I did not want to do. As it is, a single din radio fits in perfectly.   It came in a plastic protective case. just your average single din radio. Is an important piece, be careful not to lose it.    These are the removal tools for the new Sony radio
