    Nice to see someone do the job of removal and install showing both right and left sides , not skipping ahead and fast forwarding of video, I am going to put the exact same light housing they did on this video, and I use HID aftermarket kits. Nice video thank you .

    Just used this video and it's the best how to video I think I've ever used. Everything was perfect except for not mentioning to reuse the red spacer on the passenger side light. Thank you... minimal effort and saved hundreds I bet.

    • @roncalderaz1744
      @roncalderaz1744 2 года назад

      I caught that also. Fortunately the red spacers can be added after the procedure in video without removing front clip.

    • @roncalderaz1744
      @roncalderaz1744 2 года назад +2

      FYI , install the spacers onto bulb fixture, much easier than trying to fit into headlight. Without spacers bulb will most likely vibrate plus let moisture into fixtures.

    I really appreciate this video I'm actually jumping backwards from hid to the H13 halogen covers, so I can use plug and play led lamps. this video shows the process very well and its super helpful! I'm not happy with the output of the hid lights my mustang came with I mean they are ok but not near bright enough on these deer covered backroads I drive. so brighter lights are a must. Thanks a again!!

    The only thing it looks like you forgot was the rubber gasket for the bulb housing. When you remove the old bulb housing there is a red gasket that seals the bulb and puts pressure on the housing as you twist it in the headlight. I just replaced my headlights and I noticed the bulb housing was very loose when installed. Looking at the old headlight I noticed the red gasket stayed with the headlight so I just removed it and put it in the new headlight housing. Now the bulb housing is a little more secure in place.

      We usually take the bumper off to get to the small Pony Package fog lights in the grill. The bigger GT fog lights may be different if you can get to the back of them from the top of the engine.
