PPKing Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 just when the doors are opened and the car is unlocked, the same way the interior light does, but if you wanted you could fit a 3 way rocker switch and have them coming on and off like standard but the added feature of switching them on constant when your driving lights are on too. Ah that's a cracking idea, definitely something to have a think about then! Thanks for all your help though mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ_sXe Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 You don't get it on a Zetec-S/S1600/Metal Is it retro-fittable? Did wonder if I could change out my bulb/strip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ_sXe Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Only by me ;) (car needs reprogramming to activate it) But if you have them already can the lights be changed? I haven't actually had a good look to see what kind they are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 But if you have them already can the lights be changed? I haven't actually had a good look to see what kind they are! I've only seen it done once. You'd need to be a dab hand with a soldering iron (tiny tiny LEDs soldered on to board) There is someone that will charge £200 but change every LED on the car (ambient, dials, winow switches etc) to a colour of your choosing.

I did get a bunch of blue led switches made up for my Focus before, but after trading it I swapped them out for standards. That reminds me I better get them all listed!

Maleforce Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Voted RED but in the pics I think Blue looks best, just think red is more in keeping with the existing lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetecspaul Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Look at the post by Nathan (no 6) here http://www.fordowner...twell-lighting/ That shows you the locations of the bulb holders. If they are fitted and wired then you just need to buy the bulbs in your colour choice, and they are £2 or so delivered for a pair on Ebay. Some cars have the wiring and holders in place, others have just the bulb hoilder but no wiring , others have nothing. If the wiring and holders are in place then just slot a bulb in to check it's OK, and when you come to finally put in the LEDS remember they only work one way, if they don't light up rotate them 180* and try again. its a mk 6 tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a separate note I was concerned to see a white Zetec S with pink rear tinted windows on the way into work yesterday. I thought it was some company gimmick car but seems not.
