Despite repeated balancing, my 2004 and 2007 Ford Focus (Foci?) would shimmy at speeds above 65. In both instances the problem was rectified by the installation of new sway bar end links (Google it). Any decent auto parts store will have them for about $25 each (you need 2) and most DIYers will have the metric sockets and wrenches necessary to install.

Can you use any satellite radio in a Ford Focus 2003?

You should be able to. I have a 2005 ford focus zx3 that uses xm satellite radio, which was bought at Best buy then I had them install it. It goes through the radio, so you choose which station on the satellite then match it up on your radio. If you do install it on your own, make sure you know what you're doing ^^
