Ford Fiesta Zetec S- Interior Lights

Hello, am I bit of a lurker using all the helpful guides over the past few years but have finally appeared!

I've recently upgraded from a 2010 1.25 Zetec to a 2011 Zetec S and am missing one thing I have never really appreciated and that's my interior lighting!

My questions...

I have the standard 'Dome' light... Is there a way of buying and fitting the Map reading lights (Submarine) in my Zetec S? (Not sure where you would buy them)

Secondly, is it difficult to retro fit the LED strip above the glove box?

Cheers!

    the triple light unit is a straight swap from the single,

    For sub lighting unit you will need to run a single positive feed from interior lighting up to the unit but 100% possible,

    Ford charge around £90 for the ambient submarine light so we all purchased from breakers selling on ebay.co.uk

    The led illumination is also 100% possible if choosing to go for genuine ford kit i suggest logging on to fordpartsuk.com for the best price on anything genuine.

    Or ebay.co.uk for aftermarket.

    Click on my profile page via google to see my list of guides including front&rear footwell lighting, ford logo puddle lighting, additional boot light and illuminated ignition ring all performed on a focus but exactly the same principals apply to performing on the fiesta.

    Ah nice one, yeah the map reading light is probably the most missed part in my opinion aha! Are there many that come up on eBay? A quick search didn't show any for me... Unless i'm looking in the wrong places?

    Nice one, thanks Lenny!

    there were three last week with the submarine ambient light,

    They come standard in the ST so try searching ST interior light or ambient light.
