Tanisla2 Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 These are the led puddle lights, after searching on eBay I found some that are intended for a Lincoln car! They looked the same as the one advertised for the Ford Edge but better value. Here are the links from eBay along with a photograph of the original and the led replacement, Even though I ordered Lincoln light the came on a box marked up Mondeo 2015- http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=322423105913&globalID=EBAY-GB Lincoln lights. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=322528683568&globalID=EBAY-GB Edge lights.

bluepeter Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Have you got any before and after pictures of these bulbs fitted to your car ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim610 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Were all these bulbs just plug and play replacements for the existing ones? Does all the automatic light features still work? Has fitting these bulbs generated any warnings on the dash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash43uk Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Nice one thanks for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfcjoe Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Did you use the same bulbs for the daytime lights and the main beam lights ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does all the automatic light features still work? Has fitting these bulbs generated any warnings on the dash? The bulbs are a straight forward replacement , just remove the old ones and .fit the new. No warning light have come on indicating build failure, that's if the Edge has this feature!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim610 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Thanks that is great. I might just have to give this a go. As reported in another thread I tried brighter halogen Main/DLR bulbs but I couldn't even get them to lock into place, did you encounter any issue like that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyn8510 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Are these just one bulb to cover main beam and daylight running lights would love to change mine original lights are awful to be fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilRS Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Yep- I'll give those a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfcjoe Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Oh I see you use the same type of bulb for both main and daytime light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim610 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Yip, where as in the good old days you had one bulb that did main & dipped beam the Edge uses one bulb for main beam & DLR and a separate bulb for dipped beam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcfcjoe Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I can see from the previous posts that the side light look a similar connection but my main beam light has a connection like shown below so the previous links are different .. can someone explain please thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge of Reason Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 mcfcjoe, Is that not your dipped beam light bulb you are showing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfcjoe Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Ok so the day time running lights go to the dipped beam light and the one I am showing is the full beam .....is that correct ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim610 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 No. The inner bulb of the headlight cluster is a combined main beam and DLR light. The next one outboard is the dipped beam. the light you showed in your picture is NOT the Main Beam/DLR bulb. Look at the pictures in the second post in this thread and pay particular attention to the orientation of the 3 connections to help you identify the Main/DLR.

Jonro2009 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Hi @Tanisla I'm considering getting the puddle lights, I have a 2015 Mondeo. They look exactly what I need so no questions about fitment or suitability etc, my only question is this; how are they holding up and do you think they have plenty of life in them?Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb65 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Do the 100W LED's get significantly hotter than the standard halogens? I want to do the change, but am a little hesitant thinking that if the light housing cant take hotter bulbs, then its gonna cost big time at some point!
