  • I'm also uprating discs & pads but i'm looking at Black Diamond drilled & grooved discs. This is total it would cost plus fitting & brake fluid. Yunii

  • Mind upgrading the front discs will move the brake bias forward esp if you have drums on the back an upgraded discs an pads in the front, ive been rearing a lot on this recently with my rear disc proj

  • Brakes - I'm of the opinion that drilled or grooved discs are a bit of a marketing tool. I ran a 270bhp 205gti at Knockhill for a couple of years and the biggest difference I ever made to my brakes wa

Also, Mods, is there a way of combining a few threads together to make my own build thread? I have 3 different threads based on years: 2013, 2014 and 2015 upgrades that I would like to combine all the info into to get some sort of a build thread for reference as I realised there is quite a lot of useful information in them all. Thanks :)

Would I not lose the replies from other people then if I copied and pasted it all in one thread? Or just to copy and paste my own posts only?

I bought a eonon D5162 for my focus it's good but the new versions have now got screen mirroring when is pretty cool.

Does this unit come with the reverse camera or do you have to buy it separately, I couldn't tell on the website! Also is the camera hard to fit (bare in mind I'm a beginner when it comes to these things)

See my guide on fitting a good camera from Connects2

Easiest camera in the world to fit in the Mk2.5 Focus

it doesn't come with the camera, there is a version from eonon that does come with the camera but you could just as easily use Lenny's guide an cam, as long as the camera is a comp video output it'll work.

I cant imagine any reverse cams wouldn't use comp video out so the only thing to be careful of is the physical size, the rear number plate lights are different on the mk2 and 2.5, probably the 3 as well

The camera used in my guide replaces the boot handle in the centre,

I dont like the ones that replace the reg lights because they obstruct an uneven light and the cameras not centre,

The one ive fitted is centre and incorperates the boot handle :)

I looked at those, just couldn't find one reasonably priced so just went with a light one at a fraction of the price, its not that far from centre, only thing is you cant see the sides of the car in the picture but yeah, if you can find a handle one for a good price or don't mind spending money on it, then its the best option, in any case, both of them im sure are still perfect for driving up to my partners festa to within a few mm :)

Im considering replacing that whole boot fitting with the chome one though so I may look at changing it as your right about the light spread, the plate is still visible but isn't symmetrical which isn't right :)

+1 its the little things that give me insomnia mate,

Nothing wrong with the cameras for 12 quid, i had one and sold it after finding this one because its more symmetrical i lived solely on wheatabix for a week as result of purchase but its centre and this keeps me calm
