1.4Tdci Fuel Tank

I am interested in the possibility of changing my original fuel tank for a slightly larger one and would like to enquire whether (1) Has anyone ever done this upgrade and (2) Which tank did they use. A petrol Fiesta has an extra 2 litres (45 litres). Have no idea about the Focus or other similar models

I do alot of miles and fill my tank up to the brim every 2 days, when I return home on the 2nd day, I am on the Red line, with the Fuel warning light burning brightly in the instrument cluster.

I am averaging about 390-420 miles before I fill up, but I dont like driving on the dregs of the tank and would like a bit more of a comfort zone.

Bearing in mind the fuel tank area is pretty much the same vehicle to vehicle,I'm hoping the changing of the tanks will be fairly straight forward.

Any opinions?
