next i got some pedals for it that look good just waiting on them to arrive :)

Also check this link for where i bought all the stuff from and links and pics (http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/61404-spend-my-money-for-me/)

For Anyone Wanting to Upgrade

Warning Link Intense!
you could change the Fogs to Cree Lights can also be used for reverse light http://www.alltronix.co.uk/cree-leds/
Lenny in the forum recommends them (check out this thread) http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/61146-cree-led-headlight-bulbs/
also talks about decent bulbs at the front of the car called Osram Cool Blue Intense (http://www.amazon.co.uk/INTENSE-halogen-headlamp-64210CBI-HCB-double/dp/B005Q0F9PA)

and interior lights is another change you could do if i remember the interior lights is 501 capless so for interior i would go with these 194 501 T10 Wide Angle 12 LED Wedge Bulbs (http://www.wardenjp.com/stores/194.html)
You get them in 4 colours Amber, Blue, Red and Xenon white all geat lights and trust worthy supplier
personally a went for the blue lights for my footwells and courtesy lights

I used these for my map reader lights and my registration lights and they are exelent VERY BRIGHT! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-T10-W5W-501-194-168-Car-White-20-SMD-LED-Interior-Side-Light-Wedge-Bulb-Lamp-/390955722443?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5b06c6e6cb

I picked the longer version for the boot light http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-42-LED-SMD-White-T10-W5W-501-194-168-192-Car-Wedge-Side-Light-Bulb-Lamp-12V-/361010037995?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item540de004eb

You can also de-tango your indicator lights by replacing them with Philips SilverVison http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/car-maintenance-accessories/bulbs/interior-bulbs/?48177516S&0&cc5_201
ive still to do this lol but wee hint if you sign up to this forum premium you get discounts from that place 25% off a think lol (waiting to i get paid lol)

i

and if you want to keep ur key in good nick i got this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251407574392?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Many more things you can do but all upto you and your taste :D :P

Ah cool cheers :) how long did it take to arrive?

AGES! lol took like 2 and 1/2 weeks bud so order two if you get it incase you goose it up lol it can be fiddley but its simple enough and good

Thought it might lol. It says 15-30 days delivery when you add it to the basket! Shame you can't select any other shipping options. Wouldn't mind paying an extra couple of quid to speed it up a little.
