Sadly I had had to replace the blinker bulb. In Australia I found the ONLY one was in Twiwan, 6 week delivery, and at $60!!!. Ford did not have any spare. I ended up soldering a group of orange LED's together as a fix.

hi Alan, I have just bought a 2015 mk5 Mondeo titanium, I've just watched this video and I'm not sure how to tell what type of headlights my car has, what do I look for to know which ones I have ? thanks
@alan4x5 жыл бұрын
if you shine your headlamps against a wall... halogen bulbs are not very bright and will have a yellowish tinge to them...if they are led then they will be a very sharp bright white light.....you can also phone your nearest ford dealer and give their parts department your reg no. they will tell you what type of headlamps are fitted to your car as long as they are standard from new
@5kull5715 жыл бұрын

Hi Alan does my 65 reg Mondeo have seperate main beam and headlight or same bulb as I bought H7 S2 but main problem is main beam is useless and hardly any difference in brightness to headlight.

your main beam bulbs will also be your daytime running bulbs which are quite expensive

Hi Alan - Bought Axbeam S2 H7 bulbs (not arrived yet) Just had a conversation with a collegue who says I can't fit my LED bulbs (headlights) in my MK5 65 plate as it is an MOT failure to replace Halogen with LED bulbs unless car was LED when built. Is he confused or right?
@alan4x8 ай бұрын
when i made this video it was not an mot failure to fit led bulbs but dvsa has since changed the mot failure criteria and now it is an mot failure to fit led bulbs when they are not standard but it is not a police offence so what most people do is fit standard halogen bulbs for the mot test and then fit the led bulbs after the test

I have got a mark 4.5 with basic reflector headlights and they are absolute sh1te. Really terrible. Osram nightbreakers have made no difference and I have been considering trying the Osram 80w to see if it improves visibility at night aslong as Im not getting flashed for dazzling other drivers. The wiring is my main concern tho
