Loving that and that CD player! where did you get it from Stevie?

Thanks for the comments guys.

I got the CD player from a dutch online electronics shop.
They delivered it free. Was pretty simple to install after cutting out the bars of the dash/fascia.
Now my Ipod is permanently in the glove compartment (luckily I will get an iPhone 4 in a week) and my current phone is linked to the bluetooth for calls. No complaints about the sound quality

I picked up and fitted my Anthracite scuff plates yesterday and took some photos during my lunch break. (please ignore the state of the paint :P)





It's not quite what I was hoping for. They are thinner than the aluminium ones and they are a kind of hard rubber/resin/plastic rather than metal. I probably should have gone for the aluminium ones however i'm not shelling out another ~€50 for another new set. These will do until they get messed up.

I actually got extra discount cause of my surprise when the guy opened the box at Ford. I was like "Oh, they are not quite as I expected, a bit thinner than I hoped" So the guy gave me 5% extra discount on top of the 10% I was already getting from being a member of the Dutch Fiesta Club site.

They look good mate, me like

good stuff

Well jealous that left handed drive Mk6 Fiesta's get a foot rest! *shakes fist*
Oh well I'll continue to put my foot under the clutch pedal on long journeys!

They look good But not metal?

UPDATE TIME!!!

I've had 2 weeks off so I've made a few small changes

HIDS + LED Sidelights:

Before







Now those lights look pretty bright but trust me they weren't, especially when driving. Sometimes I had to check that they were still on. It's just the pic and being pretty dark that makes them look bright. With the naked eye they weren't that bright.

After:









I haven't driven much in the dark since fitting, only a little, but I can see a big difference in the amount of light I put onto the road.
I should probably get some white bulbs for the fogs too.
I also fitted silver coloured indicator and side indicator bulbs just cause I didn't like the faint bit of orange I could see through the light casings. In my opinion they flash a bit broghter than the normal orange bulbs.

Next up was the leather gear and handbrake gaitors. I finally got the correct handbrake gaitor in the 3rd parcel from the Ebay seller (first parcel = no handbrake gaitor and 2nd parcel = a long handbrake gaitor)





Just the other day I picked up my latest 'mod' from Ford and then fitted it today.





Now I see the first pic I think its probably should have been a few mm lower but it's good for now...lol
I also got a second one to replace the faded one on the rear. Might get round to that next weekend if the weather is ok. Might also de-Fiesta while i'm at it

Now to finish the whole update off a few pics of something at Ford which drew my eye when I picked up the S badges.







Personally I would prefer it non-Matte wrapped but still
Oh and the price made me but I knew it was that much already

liking the mods stevie!! HIDs look ace, the price of that rs is crrrraaaazzzyyyy!

Hid lights and badge are looking good top work

Very nice Stephen.
The 's' badge finishes off the front end nicley
And almost £56,000 for an 500

The 500 is well over priced. A white one with Mountune for me... thanks

It's not just the RS that is overpriced, it is all cars in Holland. Every new car has 45% tax on top of the consumer price and then the normal 19% VAT of the consumer price is added. You do get a discount if your car is extra economical.

Thats why cars here are so expensive.

Got a few things planned atm...been doing some this week, gonna do some this weekend and do some more in a few weeks time.
look out for the updates coming soon...
