Full Xenon Headlights Or Just Xenon Bulbs?

Featured Replies

Hi people,

Completely new to this site so thought id ask a question.

Ive recently bought a 2015 Ford Focus Zetec S. Im looking to have Xenon lights fitted to the front but struggling to find any decent prices/legit places to get it done. What would be the best option for this model, a new set of Xenon headlights or just add some Xenon bulbs to the existing headlights? Which would look the best? Obv getting just the bulls would be the cheapest.

Thanks



Hi Luke,

Welcome to the forum, Personally I wouldn't put Xenon bulbs in your standard headlights unless they are projectors. For your options I would look getting a headlight with projectors or retrofitting them they are places that offer this service.

Thanks

Mine are not projectors but they do have the new day light running lights which i kind of like and wouldn't want to change. Will the xenon bulbs in the existing headlights just look silly or not do the job?

You could get brighter/whiter bulbs for your current reflectors.

You can't but HIDs in though, as they are not projectors.

The Bi-Xenon System in the TitX and ST3 require ballast, levelling, washers, etc. Big expensive job...

Upgraded bulbs will work on ebay look for extreme white or diamond white bulbs that have uv protection as ford requires low uv bulbs

Xenons in your currently headlights would work, It would just blind oncoming traffic. Have a look at this myself and gingerflame retrofitted projectors so that we didn't blind drivers and got that nice cut off, http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/63136-fiesta-mk6-headlight-hid-retrofit/
