Hi guys! I'm a brand new member and a very proud owner of a Fiesta!

Only had my Fiesta for 6 week or so, love it so much!

On the subject of LED colours, I voted RED, I've just ordered some for the footwells and can't wait to get them fitted. I like the White defaults that Ford fitted but I think red will match the rest of the dash and glovebox lighting strip.

I'm so glad to be aboard with all you guys for the ride! :)


Welcome!

Always taken about 1.5 weeks for them to arrive for me, superspeed from Hong Kong stylee. Thanks for all the feedback though, I think I'l likely stick with red - matches the dash and lighting. I'll hang onto the blues and whites in case I fancya seasonal mood change or a bit of mix and match, lol. If anyone gets the amber ones it would be good to see a snap of those :)

I've tried blue for a week,and have now resorted back to red.

Blue (in my opinion) looked a bit too bright and chav. Red is a nice glow, not to bright and fits in with my dials and radio etc

Welcome to FOC, enjoy your stay.

Blue (in my opinion) looked a bit too bright and chav. Red is a nice glow, not to bright and fits in with my dials and radio etc


I changed to blue as the all-new focus was advertised with a cool ambient blue glow in the footwells, which (in my opinion) made bright red footwells look very chavy.
Each to their own I guess :)

I'll hang onto the blues and whites in case I fancya seasonal mood change or a bit of mix and match, lol :)


Shame we can't just press a button to change the colour of the lighting like the US fiesta owners can:

Alright mate which exact bulbs did you get to light your footwells up that much? Mine are too focused and just look like a little blue blob in the corner :(
