Hi Scott, Mine was held on with auto double sided sticky tape, but these can be bonded on with any auto glue

Hi Jake,

I got mine off eBay actually – Picked them up when I first got the car from a local guy who had the wheels on his Vauxhall

Hi Lewis,

To get the standard one’s to fit, I had to turn mine upside down and use the actual fascia to hold them in place.

Hi mate, car looks superb!!

A quick question, how did you get the standard front fog lights to fit? Or did you miss thos off the list of new parts?

Thanks

Hi James!
first off,congrats on the website..you have some really really useful stuff on here pal – i only regret that i did’t stumble on it sooner!

wondering if you could help me with a few problems i’m having…first off, i’m building an ST500 lookalike…i’ve pretty much got the majority of the work done and sussed – gruelling 3 months of only being able to ‘do stuff’ in my free time…i’ve come across three issues that have stumped me..here goes:

1) when you fitted your ST pod dials did you manage to make them work? if so, how did you do it? If it’s not possible for you or i or anyone else on here to do it themselves, can you recommend any companies that could do it?

2) Heated seats :s .. been reading a lot about them here and there and the whispers are that its not possible to wire them up. I’m not convinced! In my mk1 Focus ghia when i changed the seats over, all i had to do was find the loom (which was under the gear stick surround) change a few fuses and wire up a few switches..however, i am stuck with the focus mk 2…any suggestions?

3) I have factory fitted Xenons on my focus but am loving the look of the aftermarket angel eye projector headlights commonly available on ebay..i i put these on, would my xenons still function as they do now, or is this something completely different?

hope you can help..sorry for the long comment ;s collectively, hope we can come up with something…
once again, good job on the site / blog thingy

Thanks for the answer. I got one more question, i bought a used ST rear bumper (only the bumper, without surrounds,lights), and my focus have de original bumper. What do I need more? The fog and reverse light on the original bumper fit in the ST?
