  1. OK I give in I HAVE REMOVED all the FFOC badges as you say " they are horirble " Black glass prevents the use of WINDOW stickers I have asked the dealer to to fit the titanium badges hope that is OK with you I have not mentioned there is NO SUCH car as an ST in Aqurious Blue or even an ST Estate with a badly matched front bumber plus the numerous dodgy lights and gull wing doors I have seen here And now my car is going to be just a repmobile like all the others there does not seem much point in me being in the FFOC owners club You dont even like your own emblem lol I have been under sev
  2. I have always been different lol the car below had 1.6 L badges on the boot and you will notice the 4x4 badges missing off the front wings and the Red GSL pin-stripe is gone too it helps with the security there were millions of 1.6L's so i was hoping that if someone wanted to knick one they would pick another mind you it did have 3 high security systems lol So making the car look "cheaper" lol does NOT bother me it actualy was a 2.9 gsl 4x4 or how about this one Was the ST but again notice badges are missing on the outside or may be a Focus Chic again NO badges lol
  3. I aked them for a Focus that was different and this is what they came up with MY XT bit more than Titanium and x pack lol the full monty may be! but perhaps ford did not have the full monty badges OK pics for the unbelievers lol note the NUMBER PLATE too lol "the bottom line" And this Ford dealer CAN NOT DO cherrished transfers nope can NOT do it company policy er??? they put my number on retention reg the new cars then transfer the retention back to the new car They ring me up to go back after about 5 or 6 weeks and they fit my new plates hence 2 numbers they used to do it when they wer
  4. no probs on my petrol 2.0 still love the key free .........I forgot had a key cut with no chip and keep it in arm rest glove box Was having trouble filling screen wash and my wife could not sort the key out for bonnet from the fob so we just have the BONNET key now Hard time explaing to man at parts counter it was key free and did not have a key then as a parting thing he said Oh by the way the key you just bought with out the chip will NOT start the car i just fell down laughing as I said for abouth 10th time it has no key hole He could not get his head round there is NO ignition key . BUT b
  5. I will look for the pics Mine is Orange and to be honest it is FEEBLE I did my own on the wifes 57 zetec last year and a few others too but the cars have gone now Buy the Ghia interior light with reading lamps then drill the corners inside by the reading light bulb and and fit 2 super bright red LEDs super glue power these off an ignition feed They look great and do actualy light the car a bit red they appear to change colour as they are red normal but if you turn on reading light they change to WHITE like magic I had an off switch under the dash but never had to use it as they are not over br
  6. Have XT cross between both I deactivate when sun roof left open warm days if we get them It only uses the switch to deactivate So It must reactivate when Ign is recycled photo below As well as cat if you leave windows open an inch in hot wether deactivate scan too The global closing is seperate too the double lock I think you push the button twice for DOUBLE lock thats now secure the HOLD the button for global closing Mine key free and a tad different You CAN have double dead lock and still leave the window or sunroof open a touch or full open ( even with window open you cant lean in and o
  7. Looks Good almost same as mine lol the Alloy peadle kit and handbrake cover will look good Did you get the USB connection ????? And I was wondering do you know which assembly plant built yours ??? as the coulor match on that bumber does not look as good as on the one on mine I just updated pic today And Yep there is a slight colour match but I had not noticed before so i think it is OK now my old one that was ten shades out lol You have to call it an XT lol Titanium Xpack Sport pack and all the extras is too long a name I think we should start our own section here for XT owners
  8. Yep and the Moto N95 is the paired name of the BT phone Mine is really a Nokia N95 but that is so common among BT devices I chose a name I will recognise as MY PHone eg when my laptop or such says pair moto N95 I know its my phone and not some scammer trying to get in
  9. halfords do an LED jobby but on my 2.5 i had to reverse the + - as it would not light either cut leads and scotch lock them opposite way or do what I did and trim the locating lugs off the plug so it can be fit in the wrong way round pack of 2 http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... ryId_70557 car shops also do them a bit cheaper but less leds The LED gives a brighter redder light the 21 watt standard buld looked pink on my one
  10. well done there now what about the new BT with USB as in the new mk 2.5 focus all I want is the retro fit USB socket as I missed it off my factory order got BT and Sony DAB so it should be an easy fit
  11. there are two differnt switches see this thread mine is the 58 reg version with the arrow switch http://www.ffoc.co.uk/modules.php?name= ... c&t=198487
  12. yes the new shape 2008 has the socket in arm rest and its powered all the time I too need to mod it to work with ign well I would if I had ign got power button and there is NO aux position its either ON or OFF unlike the key version with pos 1 for radio etc and position 2 for ign and the pos 3 (against spring for start) I wanted to leave Ipod in armrest and just power up when running and USB too when I get chance I should change my name to "I want USB" lol its my only complaint agaisnt my car the other silly stuff i can live with lol
  13. Just a thought have you RESET the windows You have to do them all check hand book I cant remember exact sequance but you run each one down and back up on the one shot feature before setting the global close so it learns the positions of the windows and the start and stop marks it needs resetting if the battery is disconnected
  14. Well its on the XT lol 2008 58 reg Global Closing is the option name any model with "Global Closing" has the one shot feature on windows and Sunroof again its not 100% i think they have turned down the power because of things being trapped Now on Hot days or damp days the windows hit the sensor too often and stop partially closed you have to open car and power it up to push button to close manually to be honest it is easier to just close the window it also seems to stick more is some one is watching DOH it makes you look a plonka never sticks when Ford push the button OOOOOR its anoying me
