Zetec S footwell lighting

Featured Replies

Just a question (as one of my collegues would say)?

Anyone with a ZS tried putting bulbs in the holders under the dash to enable the floor illumination when the doors open?

I dont have any wiring there, just a bit of plastic where a clip would go for the lighting , no wiring either, sure it wouldnt be that hard to wire in.

me too checked a couple of months ago,looks like some have the wiring and others dont :(

Think to yourslefs for one moment, one person is saying it works, yet 3-4 people saying it don't....don't take a great brain to work out they could be telling lies? ;)

The bulbs are around £2-4 so its not a bank breaker :)

Check out my picture and you should be able to see if you have the wiring or not!

No wiring on my ZS :(

None on mine either.

If this helps, this is what the bulb holder looks like minus bulb. Its located behind the inboard (right hand side) hinge of the glovebox.

for those of you who have the wiring you may be able to fit the interior light with the submarine lighting and also the neon strip thingy along the passinger side dash,i tryed the interior light but didnt have the wire to power the submarine lights which must come on when you put the headlights on ;)

ive got no wiring either!
