Awww u sound like a sweety! Hello 2 u 2!

Hey Adam, nice to have you around. :)

Hey Adam and welcome to FOC!!! I know this probably isnt possible but when I ordered my car they couldnt install the bluetooth and USB at the factory for some reason so ford have installed a stupid parrot system for me, wanting to know if the real bluetooth can be installed at a dealership? if so how much?

Hi, Welcome. thats a nicely specced car you've gone for. Is it the newer 95ps tdci engine you've ordered though? if so how have you managed to get the street pack with it?

cheers lee

cheers lee

no its not the 95ps engine, i ordered the last day of the older 90ps engine as there was no way on earth i was paying the extra for the street pack parts as aftermarket parts, even though i get them at cost

I am so sure i posted in this thread last night!!

Hello, by the way! Enjoy your stay. Interesting to have someone from "the inside" on board! :D

well i sit on here during the day at work aswell, it helps to pass the time, so its a natural thing for me to be a part of. i enjoy everything ford and have just come back off a two day course at Henry Ford College in loughborough, asking a shed load of technical questions (i think the tutor doesnt like me now)

if you need anything only accessible from "the inside" i.e wiring diagrams for the bluetooth module and stereo, i will happily oblige as long as its not going to be too dodgy

Nice one!

I think the only thing i'll be requiring in the near future is a new car, sort us one of them? I'll give you a biscuit in return :lol:

Welcome ;)

I'll give you a biscuit in return :lol:

as long as it's not a soggy one :blink:

Never! There are a pack of the finest Hobnobs you will fine in the cupboard!

  • Author

thats alright, you couldnt even make them soggy if you tried

digestive = 2 second dunk and its in the bottom of your cuppa

hobnob = 2 hours dunk and its still ready for more

A hobnob is useful in loads of situations!

Just don't get me started on cheese...

raclette, the worst cheese ever, bleeding frenchies and their weird cooking

proper mature cheddar, ftw

Hi Adam and welcome to FOC :D It's a great place, here! It sounds like a great car you've got coming...

If you want a bit of advice, don't get Mike started on cheese :P

Adam this could sound like a cheeky question...

Can you go round the ford used forecourt and see if they have any Fiesta ST's for me? :D

Ohh and welcome to FOC!

Hello and welcome!

I'll just be cheecky and ask, but is their any wireing/ connection diagrams available anywhere for the stereo and it's components? I'm looking to install a system of my own whist keeping the original headunit it. But somthing like that would be !Removed! handy!
