Well if your glass didn't break you won't have to get one of those...But yes, you will have to get what is called a "window regulator". It's just a fancy term for all of the cables and tracks that hold and maneuver the window glass. If you have power windows you may or may not get a new motor w/ the new regulator, so be sure ask if it comes w/ one or not. You might not even need one as long as the motor still works.

How do I remove the interior driver side door trim of a 2001 Ford Focus 1.8 Ghia 5 dr. Window mechanism appears to have broken when I tried to operate it during recent freezing weather

You have screws on every corner of the panel, maybe one for the door handle. Take that off. You might have to take the plastic and foam out a little. This will give you access to the window. Best of luck to you.

Ford focus 2001. rear window drops down and wont go back up, motor working, any ideas, grinding noise when operated

I presume there is a slippage in the drive of the window winder. Open carefully the window flaps, first of all look carefully as you press for the motor to function. when the grinding noise come on, slowly life up the base of the glass support to see if it is holding. If this works open out the mechanism, check the cords/ reel/ gear for fault and replace. Hope you get this right. Try with patience / caution. Hope my advice works . Good day

Need the code 4 my radio its ford focus 1.6 ghia

There is a little utility/tool that is on the internet (can be found with a bit of searching). You put your serial no. in and it gives you the correct code. I have tested on three of my own units and correct code each time, as per the issued radio passport. I will not say where on internet, as I agree with what "emissionwiz" stated about how do we know radio not result of illegal activities.
