Edge led headlight replacement

[Y100CAM]

Hi, 

 

just bought a pair of led headlights off eBay, are these a direct replacement? Please say they are 🤔 they cost a fortune

If you mean the all singing and dancing complete headlamp units, then I’m afraid they are not a straight swap. Physically yes they will go in the same space with the same fittings, but they have associated modules and sensors needed to operate, together with software changes to the ECU. 

If however you mean LED Bulbs, then yes they can be a straight swap.

Further to my last post, there are members here who are either current or ex-Ford technicians, so they are in a far better position than me to say exactly what is required.

Hopefully someone will come along and let me know what is required, their is modules built into the light units and will just need ecu adapted to suit

I’m sure they will. There are sensors which track oncoming vehicles, to adjust the beam pattern. I’m afraid I don’t know whether these sensors are built into the light units or are seperate items. I’m sure someone will confirm. I think there may have been mention of this headlamp swap in a previous thread.
