This is what I call an amazing video! Amazing quality without super annoying loud music, well detailed and clear instructions. You are a true UA-camr my friend
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Thank you for taking the time to post this video. I had to replace my damaged blue oval grille emblem. This was a huge help.
@@mikegrant5435 glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Cool and straight to the point, this presentation was a TEN sir !! Thanks
Thank you very much! That was the goal. I appreciate the kind words. 🙏🏻
Much better than going through the wheel well! I miss my 14 f150, lift the hood and the grille goes with it, undo a couple bolts and the light assembly comes right out!
Same thing with my 2006! Lift the hood and the grille comes with it haha gotta love those engineers 😎
My ‘01 Chevy Silverado you pull out two pins the entire light assembly comes out, twist out the the light you need to change, replace bulb, twist back in, set headlight in and replace the two pins, close hood. Done! Literally take 2 minutes. Bet this dudes video footage is 1/10th the time it actually took him to change a lightbulb on that Ford.
You gotta be f*cling kidding with this ridiculous process just to change a bulb. They obviously want you to have to go to the dealer. Thank God for UA-cam videos like this!!
Yeah the more I got into this project the more I missed my older model F150 haha that thing was held together by nothing but 10 and 8mm bolts
Go through the fender well and it takes maybe 10 minutes
Thanks for a great video. Straight to the point and no BS. Great video!
@@Nose77904 thank you very much!
Absolute life saver of a video and very detailed, step by step. Helped me fix a broken headlight without wondering how to do anything. One small suggestion, with the yellow and white fender flare tabs toward the headlight, I went in behind them with needle nose pliers to pop them out, seat them in the fender flare and then push them back in the holes. Couldn't stretch the fender to get them to clip back into there slots. Excellent video.❤
Ayeee I’m glad the video was helpful! Appreciate the kind words 🙏🏻😎
Totally agree on the reinstall of the yellow clip into the fender flare.
Great video. Well done. Most descriptive I have seen so far. I am replacing the headlights on my 2020 in the next few days and this is the method I will use. Thanks!

Glad it helped! Thanks for supporting the channel
One thing I ran into while doing the horn swap which is the same process... when you are removing the grill make sure the bottom clears the rubber flap at the bottom. Man was that a nightmare once it got stuck. Thanks for the video
@@teefog5717 which horn did you upgrade to?
@AndrewDoesLife just a oem factory swap. Old one failed known issue.
@teefog5717 I gotcha. What year is your truck? Mine hasn’t failed yet but idk if I should be prepared to replace mine
@@AndrewDoesLife 2019
I had to replace my horns, and this video help me out to get that completed in no time. Very short but specific and concise. Straight to the point, no bs music, long explanation or waist of time…thank you 💯👍🏽
Glad I could help!!
Thanks, much more informative, straight-forward and shorter than other videos I watched on the same subject!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks. You helped me all the way through, installed projectors and fog lights
Glad I could be helpful, Louis! 🙏🏻😎
As Somebody who watches a lot of how to vids this one was very Well Done, Hat Tip Sir!!! I am about to do this very job soon and you ended my research on how to do it. Now I feel like I can move forward with confidence.
Thank you for the kind words! Glad I could help 😊
Short and sweet and to the point. Awesome video and instructions!!
Much appreciated!
+1 Right to the point … the way a video should be done.
How easy/hard is it to get the lower part of the fender flare away from the two clips holding it? I’ve seen a couple of videos with the people struggling to pop them free.
Great job explaining this task. Ive heard this is a difficult job but it doesnt seem so after watching your vid...thanks
Super description clear & simple , totally complete
Thanks
Who the hell would give this a thumbs down??? This is best video on this process I've seen. THUMBS UP! Thanks Andrew!
I think the thumbs down comes from how simple it was in older models 2014 and below than these new ones. Ford had to be a little extra just to change a dammn lightbulb 🤦♂️
Only thing you left out was how to remove louvers from behind grill. Other than that. Great tutorial.
I figured it out.
Thanks a bunch
Just putting in some plintium headlights today man and you comment really helped ") much love from Indiana
Your video saved my headlights from having Perkins my water in them. Thank you sir.
Thanks for the easy straight forward lesson. I'm replacing stock head and taillights with LED VLAND parts. Taillights simple, headlights ohh. Until this Video! Thx!!!
Happy to help!
@@AndrewDoesLife now I've got to tackle the fog lights. The rest turned out great!
great video! I followed step by step as i took out my grill and headlights. Easy as pie. Thank you!
Glad I could help!! I appreciate your support 🙏🏻
Great video! Very helpful…thank you!
Happy to help!
Great video helped me a ton!!
Heck yeah dude happy to help!
Ford really made this a pain in the ass compared to my old chevy. Some engineer probably patted his own back
It's interesting how the newer models are more difficult to tinker with!
Great Video!
Thank you!
This video helped so much, thank you!
It IS helpful!
@@simpleinstinct you found me 😳
@@Enderman4999 lol
Thx for the Video 👌
@@jean-pierreriebeling8957 happy to help!
Excellant video but my grill was a bit tougher to get put as i had to roll out the rubber out of from one side to the other on the bottom to get grill free to slide out. The headlight on mine were a bit tougher to get out. All this just to change a windshield wiper pump. Also the bottom was a bit tough. But thanks again for the info to get that far.
Glad I could help Mike!
Perfect instruction. Thanks!!
Thanks Brandon, happy to help!
Great video. Needed to replace my horn after the midtone went out
Thanks Bryan! Tried to keep it short and sweet lol.
Thank you for the quick video 🤙
Happy to help
The top of the headlights on my ‘19 contain these holes where you can stick a screwdriver in and turn it to adjust your headlight aim. I found these two be poorly designed and they stripped easy. I’m curious if there’s anything behind the headlight assembly that allowed you to adjust the aim?
Josh, to my knowledge that’s the only way to adjust them 😔👎🏻
Ford is absolute trash for making it this difficult to change a headlight bulb. Thanks for the informative video.
It's the headlight lens. The bulbs are easy themselves
Not the only one fool
Wished I had watched this video before converting my oem bulbs to leds 🤣
Great video !! You make it plain and simple !!
Thank you! I tried to make a streamlined, easy to follow video🙏🏻
All of this just to change a headlight bulb! Remember the good old days when you simply opened the hood removed the bulb and done in 5 minutes?
Right?! The engineering is going in the wrong direction these days haha
Loving the new intro!! And great video as always 👍 👌
Thanks Artem! 👍🏻 I appreciate your support
i know I'm kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream new movies online?
Easy enough! Thanks bud!
2020 they attached brake cooling airflow deflector to the light, don’t ask me why, I’m fighting to remove that piece without removing bumper right now
UPD: just clips,use your clip tool or flat screwdriver to disconnect air vent from your light. Just pull it down
I'm I going to get a message if i change the rregular lights with the original f150 led?
Thanks
You’re welcome
Awesome video, thank you!
Happy to help!!
What knucklehead engineers came up with this design? To change headlights? Insane!
I thought that 100 times while I was learning hire to do this lol!
Great job.
Great Video / Well explained!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video. Well done
Thanks JB! I appreciate it 😊👍🏻
Nailed it bro thanks for the info😃🙌
Hey man I appreciate it!!
@@AndrewDoesLife no problem I just got this thing and I’m a VW guy 🤦♂️
Great video
How should the bulbs be seated?
Look like a pain, but definitely doable
So true! They definitely don’t make it easy haha
Excellent!!!
Thank you!!
In reality..I have F-150 2015...when I found how replace light bulbs..I was in shock..can You make simple access...just open hood and replace light 💡...
Is there any tabs at the bottom of the grille? Mine seems to be stuck
Great video
Thanks Jordan!
Awesome. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Do you have to remove the grill to install new headlights? Or you just did it to show off? Haha but seriously though help!
Thanks!
No problem Derrick!
You're the best
No you!
I have one light that I need to replace. This is making me want to purchase a whole new set of LED lights. To avoid repetition for the other lights haha
I’d definitely just replace everything at once the first time haha! This can be a tedious process and doing it multiple times gets old 😂
Is the Fender bolt 7mm?
thanks huge help
No problem Wayne! Happy to help
Si es para cambiar solo los bombillos está equivocado y hay otra forma más fácil de hacerlo
Great video but geez ford sucks for making it that complicated
Can you do a front fender removal 19 f150 ? Thx
No problem James! I’ll try and get that video out in the next day or two
Good lord...im gonna have to take apart half the truck to change a bulb.
That’s ford engineering for ya lol 😂
But if you want to replace your halogen bulbs to leds......this is not the process...you do not have to remove the entire grill and headlight...all of this is done under the wheel well...2 screws and a tab...
Any tips on getting that fender flare snapped back in on those clips? Having problems getting them back on
I would suggest removing the clips from the fender, attaching them back on and that way you can just plug them back in. Does that make sense? It’s kinda like a backwards way of installing them. That’s how I did it
@@AndrewDoesLife thanks man! That worked!
@@samhouston1483 hell yeah!!
Anytime Michael!!
I'm getting this truck soon, how is it going. good, bad?
Amazing. 😎
thanks for letting me know, it helps me choose the truck that I wanted, also keep it up with the videos, great knowledge.
Thanks Rahul! There is definitely a lot more of these headed your way :)
@@AndrewDoesLife I'm definitely changing lot of things, after watching cool videos of your truck
2:13 yeah be careful...mine almost broke the tab.
How did you end up removing the bottom part of the fender flare?
Nice until the end. Headlights won't come out.
Lol fighter jets have less fasteners holding them together.. thanks for the vid
Bro you ain't lying. The more I took it apart the more shocked I was haha
@@AndrewDoesLife hahaha i mean, at least it wont fall apart by itself!
Interesting... the dealer wanted $1,1100 to do this. I understand why now.
I’ll do it for half! 😜 haha
You got a deal if you’re in MD😂
All this shit to change a bulb. I'd rather drive without headlights.
Hahahaha! Dude you ain’t kidding. As I was figuring this out, I was like I’ll just hold a flashlight out my window 😂
I broke my grill 🤦🏽♂️
Thanks for the reply can you send me a reply once you have that video pollards thx 🙏

I don’t think this is easier than going in through the wheel well. I’ve been a Ford truck owner since 1990. This will be my last Ford truck. ( 2019 F150). They just have done the most stupid stuff recently and this is atrocious . Just to change headlights…. My old Rangers, you don’t even need tools for to remove the headlight. Simply a couple of clips. But that all changed on the new Ranger. And the new Ranger is 7/8 the size of an F150. So I just bought an F150 even though I didn’t need the larger truck. This headlight fiasco is the final straw. I won’t be buying another Ford I don’t like what they’re trying to push us towards as customers.
And in a Land Rover, you need to open the hood, press 2 latches and the headlights are removed. This is a failure of engineers, they are very stupid.
You can always tell an Engineer but you can't tell them much!
You were surprised how easy it was the headlamp assembly popped out AFTER YOU HAD TO BASICALLY TAKE THE ENTIRE EFFING FRONT END APART????? Wow man you must be a real glutton for punishment. Two hours of disassembling/reassembling your truck just to change out a stinking lightbulb. And people say Fords are superior. Pfsh
Just subscribe because of how little bullshit he said until the end. right into the information I already wasted enough time looking for the 10 mm
I appreciate the support Dillon :)
Why do all that extra work? Just come in from the back side. Just a 5 min. job.
I would love to see what you are talking about. Can you post a video of the "in from the back" process?
Oh my god that’s why you don’t buy a Ford 🤔🤣😂
More pins and plugs than you can shake a stick at!
New trucks are garbage. Buy old
Some of the engineering in these new cars seems to be going in the wrong direction haha
It has been that way for a few decades now.@@AndrewDoesLife
@obsessedwithcars219 the goal went from making cars that were indestructible to making cars that have to go to the dealer every time something minor happens haha
