If the face plate of the original factory radio is Oval, like the 1997 escort, you can get a new radio faceplate that will accept a standard aftermarket radio from crutchfield. Mine cost $49 back in 1997. It even takes the original A/C and rear defroster controls.

the code is different for every radio. it might be in the owners manual or on the back of the radio. if not you can contact ford and give them the serial number of the radio and they will give you the code. you might need proof of ownership.
If it's a Mk5 Transit (smiley) then it is behind the radio/ash tray center console, not the easiest thing to get at:-)
To unlock the radio in a 2003 Ford Transit Connect, you'll need the radio's security code, which is typically found in the owner's manual or can be obtained from a Ford dealership by providing your vehicle's VIN. If the radio displays "LOCK" or "CODE," turn the ignition on and press the radio buttons to enter the code. Be cautious, as entering the wrong code multiple times may permanently lock the radio. If you don't have the code, contacting a dealership is the best way to resolve the issue.
If you want an OEM radio, contact a salvage yard or Ford dealer. Aftermarket radios and installation kits are available anywhere that sells electronics, or parts stores.
Ford Transit was created in 1965.
Yes, you can fit a non-Ford radio into a Transit van, but it may require additional adapters or harnesses to ensure compatibility with the vehicle's wiring and features, such as steering wheel controls. Make sure to choose a radio that fits the van's dash dimensions and consider any necessary modifications. Additionally, check for any specific mounting kits designed for your Transit model to ensure a clean installation.
