My favourite is the light blue that's similar to the dash lighting on the MK 3.5 or amber. Maybe visit a local Ford dealer that has a Ti X and see what you prefer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I'm edging towards the red, as that's what my dash lighting is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avi I was wondering if my TitX (the 64 plate one) had changable colours. I've checked the manual and it just says about dimming them. Not the colours. I've also tried the Ford site but it's like a maze trying to find the information you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The control to change the colour of the interior ambient LED is in the overhead console near the sun glasses holder. From memory if you press and hold the left switch for a short while you can then toggle though the different colours by pressing the same switch. There's also a rotary control next to the button to vary brightness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commencal24 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 What's the difference when it comes to LEDs I've seen white with 2 smd but also 8 is it the greater number the more LEDs they have fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commencal24 Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 I went for the red in the end, thought it tied in well with the red lighting on the dash. cant understand why my images post the wrong way round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonami Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hi, I've just done my Zetec S and went with blue to match the dash lighting like most others seem to have done. I couldn't find any connections under my dash so spliced into the wire that feeds the rear overhead light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZetecMan1 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Looks good Toonami. I had a good look earlier and couldn't see any plug. What are my options now.!🙄😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
