Definitely looks killer better than your faded hood... Need to do the entire car so it matches!

[RhodeStiva]

[DON SVO]

who makes the paint you used?

[RhodeStiva]

It's paint code KJ. I just looked online. Paid about $20 a spray can. And got my own clear coat. There is a couple of sites.

Is there a write up on trunk light for an L model. Please post link. I searched and get nothing. There is a couple. But no good write up.

It's a pretty easy mod...clip light into the hole and connect to the plugs.

[RhodeStiva]

I have no power at plug.

You need the latch assembly that has the switch built into it.

Sent from somewhere west of here!

[RhodeStiva]

there is a way to use the door sensor but i need power. can i hook door sensor to ground and tie trunk light into tail light?

[Prafeston]

Hmmm, I thought all Festivas were wired for all options? Mine has the plugs back there. And I have the light from the Escort wagon so it comes with a switch built into the light...so no need for a latch switch or door jam switch.
