Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app bonnet strut kit http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/38121-guide-fitting-bonnet-damper-strut-kit-focus-mk2-mk25/ Colour code the panels, Change loom insulation to colour coded type, Ive also saw George fitted a digital volt gauge in to the lid of the battey box, Connect with a relay to the ignition live feed, it will look goot and wont drain your battery 24/7 Well was having a dig around my box i keep car bits in and came up with this, its a volt meter mounted in battery cover, first pic hard to see with camara, 2nd engine not running 3rd engine running, took 30 minutes from finding to pics :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Cheers lenny. Any links to where I can get the loom insulation or is it just eBay? Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app just eBay mate, Ive been intending to remove plastic panels remove hoses one by one, measure length and cut the same in blue then fit it, I bought the PVC tape and pipe cutters seperate but a stanley blade would do the same job, And i take it you need high temp paint for the colour coding? Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app I dont think ya do mate, I left my bits in to the body shop when having the body kit sprayed so its all the same paint with a clear laquor coat on top to give the shine, I then done the text detail myself using masking tape and aerosols, used a syringe and tub of paint for the blue oval. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlos1987 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Is there anything I can replace that won't necessarily give me performance gains! Such as ht leads, coloured caps? Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app NGK iridium IX spark plugs, green cotton performance induction filter, 200 cell cat and a 2" cat back exhaust, If a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold was available off the shelf that would help too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
