hi people i have an issue, i currently drive a modded mk1 ford ka (s reg)
the issue being im trading it in for a mk 2 1.6 zetec focus, the problem i have is that most modded parts are only advertised
for the focus st and rs, is there anyone who can help me search, ive got the basic stuff , i.e. k&n, exhaust system, wheels
the stuff in having trouble with are things like replacement lights and full suspension kits both lowering springs and dampers.
and help offered would be greatly appreciated

p.s. apologies for spelling

I found my local race and rally shop was very handy for stuff like this.

Also owners clubs are a font of modding information.

If you're looking for 2nd hand parts try ffoc.co.uk and Passionford. If you're after new parts I'd try places like Demon Tweeks for suspension etc.

Try picking your model from this Bilstein parts catalogue like I've shown an example of in the link. You can then google the part number and it will show which suppliers sell the kit.
