Default ABS after market

I was just having another look through carpoint as I do, and noticed that one of the adds had that they had Ford put ABS in separately, is this possible and I would imagine it would cost the Earth!!!!!!!!

Thanks

Not on WQ LX.

Has someone got a pic of the engine bay from a Zetec or anything with the ABS module, or can describe what it looks like and where it should be?

Would it look like the one in my Terry?
