Question Ford Fiesta MK 5 interior change

Hi All,

Recently and finally got myself a Zetec S Mk 5 Fiesta, bought it form a friend and it has been very well maintained just a couple of rusty patches.

I am looking to put in some new interior andwas wondering what options I have,

I have looked at the Ford KA sprt interior and am a fan but wondered would this fit into the fiesta with ease or a big job, and also I saw a photo on the net the other day where someone had put in the new st leather interior into a MK5

Im not amazingly technical but can get a job done with the right direction.

A was also wondering how big a job it is to change the LEDs in the dashboard to blue , and what recomendations wouldd there be ffor changing my interior colour from the grey standard plastic to black? I was thinkgin to cover it in some sort of fabric, Idea from the Subaru interior?

Thanks in advance , any advice is much appreciated

There's lots you can choose from mk6 escort rs 2000 recaros fit, puma millennium edition leather seats fit, also there was a limited run mk5 fez call fiesta black this had full leather in it, there's the racing puma seats as well it all depends how much you want to spend?

Haha not bad, I'm gutted haven't had chance to look yet but defo looking tonight for them prices!! Would also like to change the interior lighting to blue, is this as straightforward as changing some bulbs once the dash is out? I just want to make it more mine really but with an executive look rather than one of a boy racer

the bulbs are different but easy only awkward but easy bit is removing the green filter as the dials are front lit, if you dont whatever bulb you install still has to go through the green filter
