Hi all,

Whats peoples opinions on headlight/taillight wrapping? Im interested in doing mine but not sure.

It's illegal afaik as it reduces light output.

Only fly eyes just about get away with it as they are not a film.

My personal opinion, I don't like it, looks far too McD's car park, haha.

Hmm so I heard. I was looking at fly eye. I think a grey or black would really be the cherry on top for my car. Will need to look into it and decide. 

Do you have any other ideas for simple little mods? Ive upgraded the airfilter, getting red bulbs for inside, looking into getting the badges to red and black, got a little S badge for the front grill. Got my wind deflectors....anything else?

Ambient lighting above the glovebox?

I'm fitting the complete ambient lighting system to my dad's Zetec S over the next few months as it only has the cup holders from factory.

How easy is that to fit? I can't really go all out re wiring stuff as I have my car on finance and still not 100% if ill keep at the end.

It's a bit of a fiddle to fit, but all the wiring seems to be in place and live for the glovebox and overhead console on my Dad's.

I have worked out what looms are needed for the doors and we are also going to change the grab handles for the gloss black ones when we fit the door ambient lighting.

Sounds good pal, might look into it. Still on the hunt for black and red badges though........
