TomTitanium62 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hi all, welcome to my build. Bit of a late start considering i bought the car back in may but here goes nothing. Can't say that i have done anything major to the car, just a few small touches that make it a little bit different to other Focus's in my area. Things i have done are as follows, Replaced stock Dipped beam bulbs to Osram H7 night breakers Replaced front sidelights to Osram cool blue intense W5W Replaced front and rear indicator bulbs to Philips silver vision PY21W Replaced Stock air filter with a K&N (E-2993) Replaced Stock locking wheel nuts that always rust with McGard ones Painted Front brake callipers and rear brake drums with Red Engine Paint (you basically need something that can take heat) Replaced front Dull looking footwell lights with Blue Led W5W bulbs Bought a rubber smart key cover (stops it getting scratched) Here's the links online K&N Air filter - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/K-N-Air-Filter-Element-E-2993-FORD-FOCUS-1-6-TDCI-2-0-TDCI-1-6-TI-1-6-04-11-/331066001597?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d151248bd Ford smart key cover - http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.XFORD+BLACK+CAR+SMART+KEY+COVER+CASE&_nkw=FORD+BLACK+CAR+SMART+KEY+COVER+CASE&_sacat=0&_from=R40 McGard Locking wheel nuts - http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_195025_langId_-1_categoryId_262855 Osram W5W side lights - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OSRAM-W5W-5w-501-COOL-BLUE-INTENSE-XENON-LOOK-BULBS-12V-Same-day-1-class-posage-/331086399023?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d1649862f Philips silver indicator bulbs - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PHILIPS-SILVER-VISION-INDICATOR-BULBS-DESIGNER-PY21W/271322464219?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D19062%26meid%3D3561589623466614536%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D8647%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D121223469154%26 Foot well lights http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-x-20-SMD-LED-501-T10-W5W-Side-Number-Plate-Interior-Light-SUPER-BRIGHT-/321070144109?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&var=510100518710&hash=item4ac1459a6d Photo's Side lights Footwell lights Indicator Bulbs (notice that cruddy orange tint is gone) Boot lights (W5W 501) Mcgard Locking wheel nut K&N Air filter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTitanium62 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 Orignal foot well light (had to bend out the wires from the new bulb to fit in) bit of a botch fit but it works and is safe ( didn't want to cut into electrics) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTitanium62 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Definitely, even though i have to admit i got a lot of it of your build thread HERE. thats why i love these forums, you can get all sorts of idea's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preee Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Definately , forums are great for finding idea's , as so many people all looking to add that little extra bring in a great resource of extras to add. thats why i like Alibaba.com , as the Chinese always bring the bits out first that eBay finds later.

TomTitanium62 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Next mod i want to do is swap the spoiler for a Zetec S one. But that could be a while yet. with car insurance and holiday to pay for this year i could do without the expense lol. What i really want to do is get a remap done, Argh ! so much to do.
