    Thanks, I picked up these for my 2016 FiST. Only problem is the right DRL dims when I brake. I’ve double checked the connections and am stumped. Otherwise, I love the look!

    Hello sir. I have the same vehicle. I wonder which is the cable of the daytime LED, I want to cancel the LED. Since the left side is faulty, I need to turn off the right side as well.

      Thanks, I appreciate it! They are great headlights, though if the NA headlights weren't damaged I probably would have put that money towards other things first. That said, I do think they change the look of that car quite a bit and I"m sure they provide much better lighting than stock.

    Hey man great video! I just have a issue, i followed every step you mentioned and my low beams are not working, even i plugged back again the stock headlights and the low beam it’s not working as well, any idea? Or did i done something wrong? Please help me man!! Thanks 👍🏼

    • @BuiltbyaGeek
      @BuiltbyaGeek  Місяць тому

      Sorry to hear you are having issues. Have you checked the fuses? I believe there's a 2 fuses for the low beams, one for each side. I would start with that. Other than that, if you changed the pins, might want to check to make sure you moved the right one or that you didn't disturb any of the others. Good luck!

    My problem is that I have DLR outside the light. I connected it up to the wires and everything works 100%....until I start the car. The the dlr turns off when I turn on the headlights.

    Wait so you don't really need the H1s because they are just high beams the ones mostly being used are the H7s because the LED DRLs are integrated into the Euro headlight? Trying to save money lol also I got LED super bright turn signals on Amazon

    How’s the adjustability on these? Making sure they are leveled and such. I’m HEAVILY considering doing this since I hate hate hate the USDM headlights.

    • @BuiltbyaGeek
      @BuiltbyaGeek  Рік тому +2

      There's an adjustment screw on the headlights, but it's limited. My understanding is that the Fiestas in the UK had a headlight adjustment switch inside the car which controlled the motors inside the headlights. I haven't really dug into it that much, but it's something I'd like to do eventually.

    Do you have any rust around your antenna base? I have a 2016 FiST, and the rust has gotten bad.
    I may reshoot the entire roof, but Im leaning towards just fixing the rust, and then wrapping the roof black.
