I have a pvc on a 2014 Fiat Ducato. The van is a basic van with no extras, as a result there is no aux facility for the playing of music from a usb memory stick, nor blue tooth. On other models these are factory fitted.

My question - is it possible to add this facility and if so how easy is it to fit

it is easy enough but involves changing the radio/head unit

I bought one like this just for the USB port and to be able to use a 1gb micro stick full of my music.
Works a treat and unbeknown to me its a hands phone free kit if you buy and wire in a microphone.
Bargain.

Ours is a 2014 and it has a factory fitted USB socket in the centre glove box, but it’s almost hidden !

I was convinced that we had no usb connection, until I was told to search in the glove box, it was difficult to find.

More than toes wet now!
As said above unless there's an existing USB socket on the head unit it will be a swap out for a different unit.
The one linked to by Stealaway is just along the road from you in Kirkcaldy.
I swapped out our woeful 13ELE2000 unit (double din) in our motorhome and it was fairly straight forward with the only "non-plug and play" being the permanent live running directly from the leisure battery. I also had to get a fascia kit to match the unit into the fascia.
