Ford Retail worker wait for his Focus STline X

Hi all!

 

As the title suggests I work for Ford Retail more specifically TrustFirstParts.

I'm not here to sell anything, however if you have questions need parts and prices I'm more than willing to help.

 

I'm mainly here as I'm nearing the end of my wait for my own car to be built... Focus STline X

I'll be looking through for ideas suggestions and what not.

 

Kind regards from Paul

    @pbenroh smart looking Focus you have there mate! 

    Quick question, my brother has just got a 67 plate focus RS, but like yours, the puddle lamps on the mirrors are halogen yellow, does the plastic cap just pop off to change the bulb or does the mirror cap have to come off? And what bulbs sre used 501's? Cheers.

    501 bulbs yes.

    Tilt the mirror glass down and out to fit fingers behind and it'll pop off. be careful of the wires attached.

    Hello mate, i put white puddle lamps in a week ago but when i did them i got 1 stuck in each side of the plastic part, is there a way of popping that out to get the bulb back? ( it looks dimmer with an extra bulb stuck in there )

    Yeah the holder has a small screw on one side and a push in clip the other.

    I did the same to mine.

    Be careful with the screw when tightening as it's very easy to over tighten and break the holder.
