Ford Focus parking sensors installation, generation by generation.

Yes. On the Mk3 and Mk3.5 the front sensors go into the lower bumper, colour-matched, with their own tone in the cabin and a switch so they only sound at low speed. Cars with SYNC 2 or SYNC 3 can show the distance on the screen where the car supports it. On the Mk4, front sensors are a factory-style retrofit coded into SYNC, so the display shows both ends like a Titanium X.

It depends on the generation. Mk2 (2004–2011): from €199; Mk3 (2011–2014): from €199; Mk3.5 (2014–2018): from €199; Mk4 (2018–2025): from €199. Fitting is done at our Dublin 11 workshop — send the reg and we confirm the exact price before you book.

Mk2, built 2004–2011 (6000CD radio, or the Sony six-disc unit on Titanium and Ghia cars; Bluetooth and voice control on later cars, no screen): Rear sensors colour-matched to the bumper with a buzzer behind the parcel shelf; front sensors added below the grille where the bumper allows. Mk3, built 2011–2014 (SYNC 1 with a 4.2-inch display on most cars, or the Sony DAB radio with a 5-inch screen; no touchscreen and no CarPlay): Rear sensors added to Zetec cars that came without them, front sensors to the lower bumper, each with a factory-style tone. Mk3.5, built 2014–2018 (SYNC 2 with an 8-inch touchscreen on 2014–2016 cars, SYNC 3 from late 2016 (CarPlay after a software update); base cars keep a 4.2-inch display radio): Rear and front sensors added and coded to the SYNC display on cars that support it, otherwise with a separate tone; colour-matched to the bumper. Mk4, built 2018–2025 (SYNC 3 with an 8-inch touchscreen and CarPlay and Android Auto from the factory; SYNC 4 with a 13.2-inch screen from the 2022 facelift): Front sensors added to cars with rear sensors only and coded in, so the SYNC display shows both ends.

Two to three hours for one end, about half a day for front and rear on the Ford Focus Mk2, Mk3, Mk3.5 and Mk4. You can wait at the workshop or drop the car in the morning and collect it the same day.

On every Focus we work on — Mk2, Mk3, Mk3.5 and Mk4 — sensors are colour-matched to the bumper and use a factory-style tone; where the car supports it they are coded into the display.
