  1. You'll be laughing then matey - when you get it, give me a shout and i'll tell you about a few things you can do to improve it easily. When do you get it? :wink:
  2. On the Zetec, the wiring and bulb holders are already in place, all you need to do is nip down to your local motorist shop and buy some side light bulbs. It's a doddle, but looks cool. What model Focus have you got?? :D
  3. Ivov - Whats the latest? Have you got it back yet? 8)
  4. Looks cool mate, but already got them as standard fit :lol:
  5. Thanks for the suggestions guys, but I've already got dark style headlights - Gotta admit tho, the images Kev posted above look the biz. I like the way the front bumper trim is colour coded but not the fog light surround - very neat. Is it easy to do?? Incidentally, I've just fitted a sunglasses holder found on ebay from a Mondeo - fits perfect and only cost £7. Any more cool ideas?????? - Keep posting them... :wink:
  6. Hiya mate - the revised mirrors look ace, but the chrome side replacements look tackier than a day trip to the UHU factory! I thought it was a Ford Focus soap dish - keep the original ones! :lol: :lol:
  7. You could try mounting an 'L' shaped bracket between the air vent and dash as shown. If you remove the glovebox and reach behind the dash, the air vents slide out. Alternatively, remove the radio and slide the air vents out. The wiring can then be neatly tucked away and cable tied to the radio wires behind the dash so no wires are on show (look carefully on the second picture and you might just be able to spot the wire going down the side of the air vent). :wink: [web]http://links.pictures.aol.com/pic?id=4830qX84lBeMz84PWmdu7yxs7ObMBZC294xPv4xQp5Fd3Ig=&size=m[/web][web]http://links.pictur
  8. Think I've just creamed my pants - looks very cool fella :lol: :lol:
  9. PMSL!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
  10. PS - I've also got the number for a discreet hitman if you want it :lol: - :2gunfire: :splat:
  11. They've given you a Fiesta? - that's a bit too girly under the circumstances. Sell the bonnet and doors off their Fiesta on ebay to help pay for your replacement Focus ones. :lol: There's one already on ebay. I've sent the link for you. It's probably you already bidding on it? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-FOCUS-BONNET ... dZViewItem
  12. Shut the car doors, then press the lock and unlock buttons together for a few seconds until the hazard lights flash. That should re-program the central locking. To re-set it back is the same preocedure. :wink:
  13. :sofa Ooops! not good - sorry to hear that matey! I'd be tempted to drive a snow plough thru their front doors, and make then chew grit for a few months. So how long will it take to repair now? And can you ask them nicely for a replacement Focus ST with a full tank of Nitros as a gesture of goodwill? lol
  14. Can anyone suggest any simple 'tricks-of-the-trade' ways of tinkering with the standard spec on my 2005 Ti-VCT Zetec? For example, is my car pre-wired to accept any additional buttons/switches that are in use on the Ghia or Titanium models etc? I've already done the footwell lighting, checked that I have the heated washer jets connected, tried the diagnostic feature on the trip computer, and reset the remote central locking to drivers door only. Make my day and tell me that there's something I can do to improve the spec... Thanks! :wink:
  15. Eh up fella! Have you got it back yet?? Guess the fiver and wine gums didn't work then? Gits!
  16. Slip 'em a fiver and and a packet of wine gums - usually gets things through quicker!! lol :2gunfire:
  17. You'll have to post a pic of it - sounds cool!
  18. Cheers fella for the pics, I'll nip and buy some today. I think the Zetec and Titanium covers look equally good, but cheesey fake wood is definately something for people who have false teeth, dribble their gravy at Christams, and buy their slippers at M&S. Ooops, hiya Dad!! :D
  19. Star fella!! I wondered where I could buy some radio removal keys to remove my unit. Nice work and neat pics. Must agree though, the Zetec or Titanium silver trim is much smarter than the cheesey fake wood one from the Ghia PantherGhiaPompey - There is a Silver Focus Zetec gear knob for sale on ebay to match your new trim if your interested?? The link is below... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 879&ih=002
  20. Hiya mate Sounds like you might have machine silver, which is a slightly darker shade of silver (a bit more like a grey/silver than bright silver)? The photo's I submitted last week of mine are in machine silver if that helps?? Cheers!
  21. If it's anything like the annoying rattle on my passenger door, it comes from behind the door handle area. According to my local 'not-so-helpful' dealer, they won't cover it under warrnaty as my car is 14 months old (apparantly it's classed as wear and tear!!!), even though they admitted it's a common porblem on the new shape Focus. They told me to buy a new set of clips then remove and refit the door trim myself! Cheers Ford for your help! Try pushing the door handle as you're driving, and if it stops rattling, it's probably the same problem. Good luck (and buy an Astra next time - :lol
  22. HI Guys - thanks for all the welcome, it's a great site and decent forum!!. One day I might colour code the fog light strips (when I fell brave enough). Any one know how to change my Avatar picture?? :D
  23. Hi - Thanks for the reply, that's solved that problem then!
  24. [align=justify]I'm a FFOC newbie, so thought I would say "hi" and include some pics of my baby. It’s a 2005 Focus Zetec Climate Ti-VCT. It has the following upgrades: 17" alloys Trafficmaster SmartNav sat-nav with speed camera detector Nokia hands-free phone kit Roof mounted GPS dual-band aerial Footwell lighting Heated washer jets Re-mapped central locking Chrome effect strip on lower grille Upgraded headlights (blue-tint main beam, xenon full beam) Chrome rear indicator bulbs Re-badged boot lid, and door panels Genuine Ford mudflaps Since taking these pics, I have
