Neb_engineer Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 It should have a lighter socket, although I would recommend hardwiring a dash cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavroz Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Ours new Fiesta was ordered 2 weeks ago and the car is due to be delivered to the dealership 22nd December.... we had a phonecall on Thursday from the dealership saying everything is still progressing as normal.... I guess that means Germany too. 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobr Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Our local Ford dealers are closed until 2nd December. Who knows what will happen then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Just now, Bobr said: Our local Ford dealers are closed until 2nd December. Who knows what will happen then. Yeah, ours are closed apart from the service dept and a skeleton showroom staffing but manufacturing here and abroad is still in process...

iantt Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 The company I work for, the showrooms are closed but they do offer click and collect from dealership carpark or home delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Yeah, I doubt we will be in lockdown after 2nd December but the way the government chop and change you never know. I am sure if we are there will be no issue whatsoever collecting it from the dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neb_engineer Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 you can get kits, it isn't very complicated, and if you get a kit for a nextbase for instance the instructions making it so that even someone who has never touch a component on a car could fit it and also there are plenty of posts on here about how to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Got my dashcam fitted at Halfords, I know it was probably easy but they did it well and it looks great. Only problem was the decontamination procedure, which I fully understand has to be done When you arrive put heater on full blast for 4 mins Then they put this aerosol container in your car.....***** ell, smelt like Holby general for 2 days after, all gone now though. £35 quid for installation they also honour discount vouchers.

Guest Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Where I bought my car Bristol St Motors, they have said although showroom is closed they will still repair your car, or if you already ordered a car you can collect it, throughout the lockdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
