Mitchell Rogers Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi guys, recently treated myself to a fiesta red edition and absolutely love it. But any suggestions on little modifications that would add add a but more to a the car, power or cosmetic I'm not too fussed. Thanks.

Ffoxy Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 A nice red l.e.d. strip above the glovebox lid and replace the footwell bulbs with some red l.e.d's, lovely welcoming warm glow when getting in or out at night.

Maybe some hid also Other models in the range come with Ambient lighting which includes a red LED strip just above the glove box, there is a narrow strip that it clips into. I did this with my Red Edition and its amazing the difference it makes. You need 2 parts, the strip itself and the LED attachment. the LED part is about £5 the strip is more expensive, best part of £50. I got mine on eBay used for £20.. Very simple to fit as well :). Other things would be the "S" badges front and rear and upgrade the bulbs to better/whiter ones and also change the indicator bulbs to silver ones. The idea about changing the foot well bulbs to red ones is nice, again I did this and it looks lovely at night. I had problems with LEDs though so eventually went for normal bulbs which I think are just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen anything on here about mapping a 140? there are plenty of tuners out there if you buy something like fast ford you will see plenty of examples from Revo, puma speed, mountune, sico developments, eco tune ive not used any of these nor connected to them. apparently the standard turbo is ok up to 175 bhp (so I read) although mine has just failed lol and ive not mapped it.

karl46 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Get a Bluefin and you can remove the remap and put it back to standard .http://www.superchips.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
