Welcome!
I done it on my 2006 Fiesta WQ, complete rewiring, 4 new speaker set up plus an active sub woofer under the seat, I just love it.
Happy to help for anything but you should create the thread first.

Cool Re: New members Introduce yourselves

Hi all,

My GF just got a Ford Fiesta 'WQ' with a low KMs 1.6L (Zetec FYJA) engine in it... The car is 'currently' Auto... lol.

This is my introduction to Fords that we own. I used to work as a Light Vechile mechanic and stuff. I don't have a project ccar at the moment and used to play with Toyota's.

I don't have a lot of knowledge about Fords, other than the 9 inch diffs everyone pinches from them.. haha.

We're going to keep this WQ Fiesta. It's got a few problems and there's a few things I want to do to it.. mostly for the interest factor.

I'm in NSW.. Sydney and Regional.

So far we've just followed the info here to install fog lights and we did the AUX connection.

f anyone has a WQ ECUs and wiring harness from the engine/bay, please PM me. TBH, I need them on the cheap for experimentation.

The front end of this WQ is surprisingly squeaky from country roads. Really hoping to do a front end swap from a WZ or something... really hoping that some of the members come back to update thier Threads.

Yo,

Name: Neil
Car: Fiesta XR4 2008
Mileage: 34,000
History: One lady owner from new :o
Location: Hornsby, NSW
Best thing about the car: nippy, corners extremely well
Worst thing: already spent $400 to sort aircon and the alternator is broke so needs fixing
Length of ownership: 3 weeks
Mods: none
Mods being considered (in order, maybe): induction kit, lower seats, performance tyres, short-shift gears, maybe new coilovers (it sits a bit high for my liking) and just maybe a better exhaust (though a bit worried about the drone on the occasional freeway drive). Is it possible to add a 6th gear?
