also are you going to fit that seat kit under the cloth of the recaro with Si trim?

[RS rob]

I must admit, wiring from the HFS makes more sense. In the Mk5 however they are run from the rear screen and I'm trying to keep everything standard, so it's easy to work on the loom later on, using Ford diagrams.

mk6 fiesta is wired the same way aswell,
front screen on its own,
mirrors come on with the rear screen

genious mark

little tip for the underglow lighting, take a look at the mk7 fiesta Zetec model, it has soft red under glow from certain compartments like the roof, gearstick surround pocket and footwells

you could either use some hefty led's or go for what i would some cold cathodes, but they are a bit trickier to fit as theyre rigid, but come in a few different sizes, i used to get them off ebuyer.com


sa for the bonded mk5 screen, dont they still have window rubber seals?, least my mk4 did

its called submarine lighting, the leds are part of the courtesy lamp in the roof,
also on focus st's, focus rs, bmw's etc

and got it myself on my mk6 everyday from a focus

[Excursion]

MY2011 Mk7's have a row of LED's above the glove box, borrowed from the US market car. I don't like it personally, it's a bit distasteful I think. The Audi's and BMW's I've owned had the submarine lighting. I may do that eventually.

I thought that chip repairs were free?

[jonyb4]

gosh no, "usually free if your fully comprehensive"

well see thats the issue lol, im on 3rd party F&T

im thinking about adding windscreen cover then making a claim after about 3 weeks

[Excursion]

Ahh. TPFT is actually more expensive at my age.

[jonyb4]

its like that with directline

but the Si is modified so they refuse under 25s

[Rhinopower]

The MK5 Fiesta Black didn't have heated front seats as standard - I've never seen them on a MK5, let alone a MK4. I've seen the odd Mk4 Ghia with electric adjusment but never heated seats.

No, just leather. I've never seen one, either! Must be foreign market, but definitely available somewhere as I've been following the wiring diags on eCat

[jonyb4]

like i mentioned before mark the 'Black' had the option of heated front seats, along with leather and electric hieght adjustment

tis a very cool car lets be honest, even the little alloys are cool, look like mini Zetec S ones

[Max M4X WW]

even the little alloys are cool, look like mini Zetec S ones

No they dont

[jonyb4]

lol, your not a fan of them then?

[trecoll]

I see where your coming from, but look closer...

Also aimilar to the Escort Cosworth Monte OZ wheels. At a distance they do look similar to ZS wheels.

[RS rob]

The alloys on the 'Black' are actually Sparco Cromodoras, they are very light alloys and look great on a car that is slammed on it's arse. I'm a big fan as I had them on my MK3 along with the Fiesta Black Interior.

[jonyb4]

liking the lightweight part

aint they 14 inch?

im temped about them, multispokes look great on Si's namely the Zetec S wheels

i got one bit right then

[moondustka]

Let me know how you get on with that heated seat kit!!

My brother and I have them fitted to our recaros.. and after a short period they stopped working properly.. and now both sets don't work. I also had a pin on one of the switches starting to melt!

Be interesting to see whether they've made them any better?? Ours were fitted about 2 years ago.

[Excursion]

Looks good considering it's covered in dust from the mop.


I had a boy fit the new heated screen.

[dontpannic]

Lovely colour, love the work!

[Excursion]

Cheers!

I now have bags of new bits to wade through as I start rebuilding her

[jonyb4]

great finish mate,

not sure of the colour though, its aubergine? but looks brown


is it keeping the Si bumpers? please do



is the mk5 screen got the faint wiggly lines? opposed to the zigzag the mk3 has?


cant wait to see it building up

[jonyb4]

thats a big rear view mirror!

[Rhinopower]

Looking very handsome now! That will be me in a months time respray and rebuild
