CL, LX, Zetec doesnt have the wiring for it AFAIK. Ghia has it though. Our Foci are made in SthAfrica so we dont have the wiring in place unlike those in Europe. Kinda sucks but what can you do.
I'm considering doing a rabbit run from the A-pillar for it but its such a small thing I might not be bothered.

No Stephen, just Germany and Spain. Hatches from Germany, Sedans from Spain.
Ireland never made Foci, nor did the UK. Belgium made Mondeos (still does). Out of interest, LS Focus is made in the following plants worldwide: Taiwan, South Africa, Germany (Saarlouis), Russia (St Petersburg). US Model made in Mexico.

I need additional lighting in the hatch.... BECAUSE THERE ISN"T ANY !!!!
So I went off down to Autobarn and picked up a couple of RV internal lights and this weekend they are going in... Internal lighting on this model is no better than my old VB Commodore. Nearly forgot to mention the pathetic headlights too.... This car is a tinkerers dream. Anyone put an exhaust on the Duratc motor yet? |
