Hi all. Im new to ford. Only had my focus 3 days and love it so far.

Right well i brought it cheap and it needed a new headlight. So i got one and fitted that today. One problem. The button inside the car which makes the headlight go up and down doesnt work with the headlight. the otherside works and on the old headlight it worked im sure. is that a wire or something i missed? If anyone can explain or maybe take a pic of how to fix it please send me one :D

Also does anyone know which auto leads i would need. its a 2001 mk1 focus with tape player. there also isnt a control on steering wheel if that helps. i tried looking for them but cant find them. its got 3 wires in back of the tape player.

Thank you all!

    you can get headlights with or without the servo motor so check your light has the motor.
