sussex Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I thought it was due to the age of the car? Newer models having 2 lines? I have 3 lines which I prefer to the 2 lines personally but it doesnt really matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andywest2k1 Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 Any suggestions for some subtle mods folks? Ive ordered the sill protectors, and just getting round to putting on the DMB graphics. Also, looking to get a richbrook sabre aerial, anyone got any links/places to get a cheap one? Anyways as previously said, any subtle/OEM style mod suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Check out my MK7 headlight bulb change thread. It seems everyone does it as a simple mod. Its legal and very easy :) Nice ZS btw :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sussex Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 On my ZS I have added Fiesta scuff plates and mats have also got some really decent LED Bulbs coming I will put in the footwell. I have checked and although no bulbs in there the sockets are there and so is the wiring so just a case of pushing the bulbs in B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussex Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Yup, get on hands and knees with a torch and check the footwells, I am sure some people with ZS's have said they have the wiring and bulb holders and some dont. I dont know why that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 What bulb fit inside them do you know? Sorry for stealing the thread, but that would be awesome to have some footwell lighting :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 What bulb fit inside them do you know? Sorry for stealing the thread, but that would be awesome to have some footwell lighting :D Found it :D Very well hidden, but your right, I can even see the wires leading away. Would you know what the bulb type is? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sussex Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 What bulb fit inside them do you know? Sorry for stealing the thread, but that would be awesome to have some footwell lighting :D I tried 2 different sets in my previous Zetec footwells and found these to be the best, brightest http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2pcs-501-W5W-Wide-Angle-12-LED-Red-Dash-Wedge-Bulbs-/200468592336?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2eacdbf6d0 Just to let you know IF you buy those, although it says Item location: McMechen, West Virginia, United States it isn't, it's Hong Kong and delivery takes a good 10-14 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I just changed my headlight bulbs today and these are the same bulbs as the sidelights So Ive put those in for the time being. Thank You! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive got some sidelights knocking about, wont be brightest, but im going to go have a look now in my Feb 10 build ZS see if the wires are there, where exactly am I looking?

Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Tempted to add this to my bulb thread but here you go Roughly in line with the Clutch pedal Stick your head up and around the footwell See that furry wire on the right leading into the cup. Well Thats the Bulb Holder W5W's fit directly into it, the holder itself can be taken out but given it a anti-clockwise turn. It will then lift out of the plastic tab housing for a better look :) Ive got my old sidelights in them for the time being Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Tierney Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Well ive just been rummaging around and cant see anything, There was a bulb sized space but I tried putting a w5w bulb in it but it was just loose. So im guessing mine doesnt Would of been kool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Tierney Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 edit, going to have another look (and hopes for the best) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Shadow Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 It does seem not all ZS's have the bulb holder. Just told a mate of mine on ZSOC and he doesn't have one either. Wierd! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andywest2k1 Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 ha, looks like my threads been hijacked, i dont mind guys! Deffo going to look into the footwell lights! Also, a question about the DMB graphics, if i put them on, how easy are they to get off if i dont like them? One last one aswell ha, has anyone got any pics of mk7's with the sabre aerial on? Thanks for all the comments guys, mucho appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Tierney Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 The DMB badges are very durable and sticky, ive had them on my old mk6 for two years of jet washes and hand washes and they havnt so much as peeled one bit. But Id imagine a hairdryer to melt the sticky bits would get it off, just have to get rid of the excess residue left then. Just make sure you get it right first time,there pretty sticky :) Im unsure of what colour to get mine, White backgroud/black writing is too much white so im unsure, any colour goes with white, so I could just have a totally random colour but I dont wana make it look tacky at the same time..

I see what you mean about the white background. I ordered them without giving it much thought. Im beginning too sway towards carbon background with white writing.
