Hi all, I just thought I would tell you about my experience of ordering a bootliner from Ford to protect the boot of my new RS Focus. When I traded in my mk3 st3 focus I thought i’d save some money and keep the bootliner from it. When i tried to put it in the RS it didn’t fit due the boot not being as deep, hadn’t thought about that.
I went to Ford and ordered a new one using the chassis number, as the car was so new it wasn’t on their system yet using the vehicle registration. Once it arrived I went over to collect it and took the car as it was to be valeted at the same time, to my dismay when I fitted it at the dealership it turned out to be the same as I already had.
The parts advisor then contacted Ford Tech and I then had a wait of a month for an answer, it turns out that they had made a part number error which had not been noticed until now. I was told they would be updating their system and the correct bootliner arrived the next day.
If your thinking about ordering one be careful to stress the shallower boot depth just to be on the safe side.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone.
Ade.
