Hi all just a concern about the glove box light, not many people know this but it is a common problem for the glove box light to stay on, and you would never know about it! To check to see if this is happening, open the glove box and quickly touch the light if you burn your finger well guess what?????? your glove box light has been on for a while!!!! If so its a quick fix just put some packing where the glovebox light switch hit the glove box.I have had two focus's now and both had the same problem.

Awesome pick up!
I haven't checked mine yet, but this may shed some light on other members issues with starting in the morning etc, after a long period of non use. Naturally the battery takes a hit. Bunnings sell rubber feet in small packs with d/sided tape on the back. I reckon something like that would look 'factoryish' if applied neatly in the right spot as the 'packing' you mention to push the switch in further. I doubt you would even notice it. Great pick up.

Yep I noticed mine when I first bought it 18 months ago. Easily fixed with a piece of rubber.
