Decent price for those after a double din unit. As mentioned SCA have it on sale for $459.00 from their store (RRP $599.00), or if you are an ebay plus member go to their ebay store (link provided) and enter in PLUS4P to bring the price down to $440.64.
All the reviews i could find sound good, not to mention a great price from what i could find.

Chalk and cheese, the unit you've recommended doesn't have Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Before anyone asks, yes it's a capacitive screen.
Yes it does both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (wired).
Yes it has OEM capability for Steering Wheel Controls in most Asian vehicles, so no need for a separate SWC adapter.
Go to Aerpro or Stinger to determine fascias/harnesses/antenna adapters/reverse camera retention/factory amplifier retention parts for your vehicle.I have this model and the bluetooth is flakey for me. I had the XAV-AX5000 and bluetooth was solid but android auto disconnects caused me to return it for this which is solid with android auto but often when I get a call, bluetooth is not connected for some reason. Very frustrating. Any experience?
I assume no issues using USB connection?
No issues besides it not working for phone calls so when answering, it uses speaker on phone instead of head unit.
There was a firmware update issued only days ago for the DMX5020S. Try updating it and see if it sorts the unit's issues.
is the Sony XAV 1000 still the only model with a physical volume knob?
yes.
there is only so much space within the DIN spec and its being consumed by screens.
your phone doesnt have a volume knob. you'll be OK.
OK Laserface
I recently switched to a wireless carplay head unit. I miss my volume knob but i dont miss it as much as i enjoy the extra features of my new head unit.
if you want a volume knob you have to compromise. currently the only head unit that has both carplay and a knob is the sony one you mentioned and none of the more recent models (the sony is at least 2 years old) have a volume knob. it has the smallest display of a carplay head unit, its not wireless, and the touch interface is resistive touch.
if you dont have steering wheel controls i might understand your argument but spending $500 on a head unit for a car thats so old it doesnt have steering wheel controls doesnt make a lot of sense to me. get a $100 CD/MP3/Bluetooth unit and call it a day.
@Laserface: are you happy with it? did you check the 8520dabs? currently deciding between them, thanks for your reply.
that's what she said
How much does Supercheap charge to install these?
Before anyone asks; yes Ive researched my bracket, yes Ive looked up videos how to install myself. I dont want to do it.
But u want the work experience kid at supercharged to start pulling apart ur interior? :P
Well autobarn installs are a lifetime warranty and they've pulled apart more cars then you…. So….
Thankyou! Appreciate it
Dunno but if it's anymore than $100 I'd walk. It's a piss easy job. I've got a local car sound guy that did my steering wheel and reverse camera for $100 after I had installed my sony.
If anyone can find where to find a bracket for this model Focus ill consider it..
Looks like you need either one of these depending on your preferred colour, and it sits between the carbon fibre looking facia in that video and the new 2din headunit:

Only 7"s?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_7736
if you can figure out how to get more than 7" diagonal in 180mm x 100mm and include a bezel and soft keys, probably get on the horn to a head unit company and let them know. (theres 8.1" of diagonal within the absolute limits of the spec)
typically they are 6"/7"/9" with the 9" units being a single DIN unit with an out-board display.
Would recommend this model: KENWOOD DMX1025BT
