Interior bulbs

Post by Heathy »

Hello guys. Been looking at what people have been doing and the next on my list is upgrading the bulbs of the fiesta. I really like the idea of having some in the footwell and was just wondering what particular LEDS have been using?
Thanks nick

What car do you have I thought it was standard on a Zetec s also do your reading lamp bulb with white LEDs really changes the look

I've got a zetec S tdci on a 10 plate... Has everything else it seems street pack Bluetooth etc etc but not the ambient lighting unfortunately. Might have a crack at the reading light. Is it an easy swap?
