atherm3 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Hi all Nice easy one most likely, will be replacing all interior lighting on my MK 2.5 Focus, I can see that the the footwell has 501 fittings ready and waiting, but what are the interiors that are in the boot/number plate and of course between the driver and passenger? Also has anyone ever added additional fittings to the rear passenger area? Dark as hell back there when loading my daughter into her seat after nursery etc. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Numberplate and boot definity 501's. Interior light bulb types depend on build level. They could be festoon or 501's. I fitted a blue LED strip at the back of my centre console and it lights up the rear footwell nicely. White LED's would be more beneficial to you or as stated above get a rear roof light added. Not hard to install but if you're not confident then any half decent auto electrician/mechanic could do it in about 30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah there's no light there, must be due to being only zetec spec? The wing mirror 501s, are those puddle lights or just the indicator bulbs? I don't have the puddle lights but would like them.

Stoney871 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 The indicators and puddle lights are both 501. Not all Focus have rear courtesy lights unfortunately. A bit of wiring and cutting of the headliner is needed but straightforward as long as you have a steady hand and mark the cut lines carefully.

Thanks, I'll pop the front light out and look before I order. Any idea what settings the footwell lights are when in the standard fittings? I.E. on when car unlocks but dim when engone starts, much like the interior. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 The footwell lights indeed work exactly the same as the automatic courtesy light settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
