didn't know they had one, is it an Econetic or a zetec, as the zetecs aren't available yet?

I was sure only the ECOnetic model was fitted with this feature? Some guys in Europe have it on their Zetec/Titanium models but Australian spec Fiestas (non ECOnetc models) shouldn't have it? Unless they're putting it on new models?

Break or remove the bulb?

doubt you can just pull a Fuse - more than likely built into the dash,

Otherwise anyone know if the ECU has been cracked? Can always turn it off from there.

yeah they'd have to have a way to turn it off thats straight forward surely, as different models would all use the same dash...

someone will figure it out at some point
