I was completely stuck !! Many thanks, you gave me the courage to pull the headlight out 😀 (It was the only way to get to a blocked screen wash pump ) Cheers gerry
Tried to fit it today on a bog standard MK8 fiesta. I have the same headlight port as you. But the led wouldn’t fit in the clip. Cant find the ones you had. Gonna order the pieces i think i need and see. But i cant find the auto-beam clips you used.
I found that once I installed them, its too tight against the two small pipes and metal work. I had to move the pipes and leave the caps off. Did you have the same problem.
I've had my kit maybe 12 months, and decided to have a go fitting it today, but come across same problem. With the 75mm caps supplied, you can't get the headlight back in correct place as it's hard up against the metal seam . Did you get a resolution to this problem?
Thanx for the Video…battled to fit the light back…but with a bit of struggle it’s in. Still need to get larger dust covers. Struggling to find them in South Africa.
Hi there, no I didn't and thus put the old lights back. :-( Very sad to do so but those covers are, I think, important and I didn't want to keep the back of the lights open. I must say I did drive with LED lights for a few days and man are they impressive. One thing though was the high beam, I tried a number of different brands but could not get one to fit. You can even get a kit but still battled. If you can find those covers somewhere in SA please let me know.
I was looking for the LED H7 upgrade too for my wifes 2017 Fiesta MK8 (here in Germany). But according Osram and Philips release list the led version is only allowed for the mirror type frontlight E4 25168. For the lense type light E4 25170 is no releases available up to now (okt 23) and the fitting is not possible, may by the missing space for the bigger bulbs. Also the bigger caps are not available at Osram or Philips. It seems, that you install a bulb (from a China market place) with no release by national registration authorities.
Moin, ich habe die gleichen Scheinwerfer in meinem MK8, die H7 LED's von Osram passen, ohne Adapter. Mir fehlen jetzt nur noch die erhöhten Kappen. Weiß jemand wo ich die kaufen kann?

Ich fahre eine neuen Dienst Focus mit LED und da ist ein vergleich nicht mehr möglich. Das ist einfach eine andere Lichtqualität.
Ich habe die Metallarretierung von den LED abgedreht, diese in die original Kunststoffhalterung gesteckt, in den Reflektor gedreht als wäre eine Glühlampen drin und dann habe ich die LED in die nun verbaute Metallarretierung gesteckt und im Uhrzeigersinn gedreht bis sie eingerastet ist. Die 75mm Kappen gibt es bei einem großen Onlinehändler der mit A anfängt. ;-)
Ja, richtig. Diesen Arretierring mit der Nase dran kann man abdrehen. Den in das Kuststoffteil stecken wo sonst die H7 rein kommt. Das zusammen wie sonst auch mit der H7 am Reflektor montieren. Die LED steckt man dann einfach rein und verdreht sie im Uhrzeigersinn bis es nicht weiter geht. Aber die Staubschutzkappen solltest du dir vorher bestellen.
Hello, I have a big problem with my Ford Fiesta MK8 I am trying to install these exact bulbs too. My LED's from Autobeam didn't come with this clip you mention they supply, and the LED's will not slot into the existing halogen clip. Please can you help? Thanks
Upgrade to led lights are on my to do list. one question i have is.... Are these lights road legal. I don't really want to go to the expense of £60 - £80, to find they are the reason for an MOT Failure. Any advice would be appreciated.
hi mercman 88 ive not had any issue so far and i do alot of back road driving i also have full beam video coming in next few days so keep checking back
Is the LED fan cooling sufficient within the rubber cap for longer trips? I've already had a headlight unit replaced because the the plastic around the bulb melted :(
@@m33299 Correct. Not to mention the drivers that get pissed off being dazzled by drivers coming the other way with LED bulbs in a halogen headlight unit
so i have to buy the caps separately for these, do i need to buy the adapters separately too? i only have the bulbs in the box and nothing else i presumed the caps and adapters came with it?
Hey there 👋 Can u tell me your headlight approval number? There seems to be two different types fpr Ford Fiest MK. One is E4 25168 and the other is E4 25170. Thank you and nice video 👍👍👍 Ok i think i have seen a E4 25171 in your case 🙂
Thanks for the install process... but on my MK8 Titanium, (late 2017), the original clips can not work with the H7 dipped beam (as you said). Where can we find the clips ?
Tried removing the left one today, didn't work. (the one closest to the battery) It didn't wanna come out at all, felt like I was gonna break something even though I was wiggling it like a madman trying to get it out.
Nice vid mate!. Do you have issue with whining noise from the leds cooling fan of the leds.. I got a similar product from ceuk. This was mainly heard when car was at a stand still or as I turned ignition off.. Sent them back in the end as it was bugging me.
I bought mine 4weeks ago and there was a recall (day after) for 'misting in headlights'. I reckon Ford may replace yours under warranty as a known issue.
I have a three weeks old red st 2 I saw your feature on autobeam led bulbs h7 mine have just arrived have you had any issues with the blub on the left side? Cheers
That back ground singing is a no no mate !
Yes, it's not important, it's what you says😉
After strugging to refit the lamp to my son's car I decided that the car has some history so snipped off 50% of the lug and it now fits a treat! :)
I was completely stuck !!
Many thanks, you gave me the courage to pull the headlight out 😀

When are you going to do a video for the full beams?
Do they big caps not get In the way on the side that has the fuse box?

I had this problem even with the smaller version that autobeam make (with a smaller heatsink).
Very disappointed

@@wicky525 I found a solution, but not the one I wanted. I decided to stop using them and reinstall the original halogen bulbs. Shame
@@DualHat cheers for replying 👍
I've taken too much skin off my knuckles attempting, and, as you , refitted the halogen bulbs 😭

Hi Pierre, have you had any luck? I want to fit LEDs in my mk8 but I don't know which to get or where to get the rubber caps

Was worried aftermarket led bulbs won't be bright enough but these look quite good so going to give these a try. Great tutorial also. Thanks
hi mercman 88 ive not had any issue so far and i do alot of back road driving i also have full beam video coming in next few days so keep checking back
@@r23spk34 look forward to seeing that, im gonna hold off buying them until then
Is the LED fan cooling sufficient within the rubber cap for longer trips? I've already had a headlight unit replaced because the the plastic around the bulb melted :(
they’re not legal. it will fail ur mot. the h in h7 means halogen only
@@m33299 how are they not legal, I’m confused
@@Censorshift the h in h7 means halogen only. if u put led in a halogen headlight it will fail mot. search it up

I see you have indicator leds. I bought but have hyper flash on my dashboard. How did you remove it?
Where can you purchase the twisting clips where the led bulb clicks in? They don’t fit in my factory clip where the normal bulb fits in. I’m stuck! :(
fit. I did it
@@paoksalonica1028 how did you do it
How does it come that some have high beam with the low beam angle eye?
Hey there 👋
Can u tell me your headlight approval number? There seems to be two different types fpr Ford Fiest MK. One is E4 25168 and the other is E4 25170.
Thank you and nice video 👍👍👍
Ok i think i have seen a E4 25171 in your case 🙂
Thanks for the install process... but on my MK8 Titanium, (late 2017), the original clips can not work with the H7 dipped beam (as you said). Where can we find the clips ?
Also my question!
@@maltet.9050 i bought them on eBay ! Just pay attention to the diameter ;)
Are those the H7 series 2 or series 3 ones?
Does anyone know if they make LED headlights like these for the mk7? Can't seem to find any but I love the look
Where can I buy the headlight bulb clips from
You also have a movie where you replace the big light ? So the other light bulb in your headlight ? Which size is it ? H1 ?
Need bigger caps and different clips where can I buy it?
Good Evening! Nice bulbs! But why does it have shadows on the right and left ?? Better to put xenon !!
Tried removing the left one today, didn't work. (the one closest to the battery)
It didn't wanna come out at all, felt like I was gonna break something even though I was wiggling it like a madman trying to get it out.
Same both of mine don’t wanna come out
How do I put led side lights in plz
I installed these and they failed an mot
You will have to buy the full led headlights that ford had as an optional extra
Nice vid mate!. Do you have issue with whining noise from the leds cooling fan of the leds.. I got a similar product from ceuk. This was mainly heard when car was at a stand still or as I turned ignition off.. Sent them back in the end as it was bugging me.
me too mate - fitted today and seem to get a whining vibrating noise from the left LED fan. the right side is ok though
is it possible to put h1led lamps on fiesta mk8?Someone told me there is not space
Hello, is there an error message?
Any luck with full beam? I haven't found any adapter or mounts to get the h1 mounted, seems we have to make something ourselves
I will get the vodeo uploaded next few days for you
The h1 does fit but has to be placed in using the dipped beam hole for you to get the right angle for the full beam
Merci ✌
What size of headlight caps?
75mm
Any recommendations for removing condensation from the headlight
I bought mine 4weeks ago and there was a recall (day after) for 'misting in headlights'. I reckon Ford may replace yours under warranty as a known issue.
Also mate you never uploaded a video of the H1 bulb being changed to LED haha.
Model Osram HL 67210CW ?
very good !!
I have a three weeks old red st 2 I saw your feature on autobeam led bulbs h7 mine have just arrived have you had any issues with the blub on the left side? Cheers
where I can find the H7 adapter flange
Do not need an adapter
Fuck, my Fiesta lights are mountet on the Electrical connection sliped in. Not with an Twist or something
One headlight went after 4months, was expecting it to last longer.
The music is not needed, it’s annoying
What size black cap did you order?
Hi sebastian the black caps I used came with the set of lights :)
75 mm
Stephen Holder thank you 😊
@@reece4626 so if you order these lights the new bigger black caps are in the order ?
“Auto beam supply the clips” do they fuck
aren't these illegal and mot failure?
Better without the screaching girl in the background musac!
Didn't need the music
Where can i buy the black cup to cover the bulb?
What size of new cover?
