WhiteBoy Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have 59 plate facelift Focus Zetec (Mk 2.5) My passenger side headlight bulb has blown a few days ago and just wanted to know the best replacements to get that have a blue tint like xenon blubs. I read on here that the 'best' ones to get are the 'osram cool blue intenses' Which ones do I need? H1, H4 or H7? I do like the blue tint but I just don't know which ones I need to get. Thanks in advance for your help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyrule Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Here you go mate, bear in mind they are not technically street legal being 5000k, but as long as your headlights are aligned properly so you don't dazzle people, it would take an incredibly bored copper to pull you over for them. There are pictures in my build thread of them fitted. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PHILIPS-DIAMOND-VISION-H7-5000k-CAR-BULBS-/261268020641?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cd4c99da1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteBoy Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Cheers mate. I like your blue interior, I was going to do the same thing with mine but I checked to see if I had the footwell wiring but it looks like I don't have any :/ I might go for the Phillips bulbs, if not, will these fit? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OSRAM-Cool-Blue-Intense-H7-Headlight-Bulbs-Twin-/231096033358?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35ce65a04e 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Are the Mk2.5 Fogs not H8? No definitely H11 for the facelift focus 2008-2011 H8 look much the same as H11 but they don't plug in to the opposites loom, Halfords sold me H11 instead of H8 on my old 2006 Nissan Almera N16 Bought some cree h11's for my fogs fit perfect. Maybe h8 for mk2 no idea :)+1 Manual says to remove the fog light housing and remove the fog light, But you don't need to do this; much easier to remove the headlight unit and reach down inside 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your post the only reason he cycles up a hill to yours?;) No definitely H11 for the facelift focus 2008-2011 H8 look much the same as H11 but they don't plug in to the opposites loom, Halfords sold me H11 instead of H8 on my old 2006 Nissan Almera N16 That's where the problem comes from. Halfords bulb charts are innacurate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
