1 year update. My lights' UV coating has flaked off but otherwise they are holding up nicely. The lense does have some strange white shadows forming very faintly on the driver side. I expect them to last another couple years but will probably need to be replaced by then. Had I known this going in I would probably have had them clear wrapped in lamenx immediately even before installing them.
Cause I just bought one VLAND headlight and the plug looks like only can fit for H7 bulbs. But I see the introduction say can install the D2S Xenon bulbs. I just do not know how to make it
Did you do anything to get the 3 LEDs to turn yellow for turn signal and the single strip to turn white? I bought the same ones on Amazon (I think it was ACANII or something like that, but ended up receiving Spyder Auto). Mine LOOK the exact same, however the 3 daytime LEDs are only white, and the single strip for turn signal is only yellow.
Yeah that's interesting. I did not do anything, just installed them out of the box. I think you got the same ones because the way yours are, are actually what I was expecting. The listing on amazon showed the 3 LEDs being the only DRL and the strip as only a turn signal. But to my surprise, when I put them in, it was that way. So I don't know why ours are different
Spyder you say as I hope so & not knockoffs. Seen similar ones but not ones that have the white running lights at the top & bottom. Along with Amber turn signals at the top and bottom as well sick!! I have the OEM on the 17 Focus SEL. Which I think are specific to SEL & maybe Titanium as well. But I'm not sure if they're considered the halogen version? 🤔 However they do have the running lights at the top but not the bottom. But all the lights I have come across are for non-running light versions strangely. Ford may have done this on purpose. But these are definitely The best of both worlds I've been looking for. :)
Umm yeah it's kinda weird. The ones I bought showed that they were Ancii brand and only had the bottom DRLs but when I got them, they looked different.
@@WintersReviews awesome. I've only seen them on the SE in my area and they don't normally come with drls so they're not wired for it so I was never able to get clear answer
@@WintersReviews Interesting. I just bought mine and got them. But when i hold them up to the light and look at the seam on the bottom size of the light where the housing and lens meet there isnt much sealant and i can see light coming though, is that the same for you? (if it isnt too much to ask, could you check?...) I bought some silicon sealant for outdoor use just incase, but if its normal I will leave it be.
@@Rebecca_The_Dragon Shoot okay, ummm. I'd probably have to take the whole housing out to check that, which I don't want to do. But I can look at it in the day light and try to see what you mean. It's probably fine, bug I'm not exactly sure what part you're talking about
@@WintersReviews its fine, you dont need to hun. I ended up testing them out today, they look fantastic, everything is working properly. The only thing I noticed that worried me a bit was, I always have my lights on auto, and usually when I turn the car off at night and lock it, the lights shut off literally in a few seconds...well...they stayed on for some reason., like...for over a minute and I had to go mess with the switch, turn the car on and off, then lock it again, then they shut off. Might have just been a fluke thing with the car being stupid, and I only tested this function once cuz I LITERALLY did it in the dead of night and I didnt want to keep making noise. I put the stock ones back on for right now until I can get more split loom tubing to protect the rats nest of wires coming off these things. Spyder definitely updated the design, another ST youtuber got these a year ago and the DRL was only the 3 slits on the front of the light, now it also includes the "angry" eyebrow which I really like. The projectors are also SO much more bright than the stock Ford Halogens, like MILES ahead. But since they seem to be functioning properly im just gonna go ahead and seal them up. The ebay seller I got them from offered a partial refund if I sent them photos of where the light bleeds through, so thats a win. I do appreciate you offering to look at your car for me though, your really sweet
@@khalidsti2559 I think it would be a pain in the butt to do. I personally would not do that. But if you’re good at that kind of stuff and think it would be fun, maybe that would be a good option.

Really glad I found this video! Thanks for the share and can’t wait to upgrade to this look as well!
Can you add the link for the lights?
I got a 2016 was your the stock HID ONES OR NO
How are the headlights holding up? Any issues with them? Do you recommend buying these?
I sold my car about 6 months ago... But up until that point, I had no issues and I do recommend them! I really liked them while I had the car.
They look REALLY nice
Thank you!
Well done Mr. Winter -- nice edit work, too.
Thank you!
Are the high and low beam bulbs replaceable? And if so what size are they?
Cause I just bought one VLAND headlight and the plug looks like only can fit for H7 bulbs. But I see the introduction say can install the D2S Xenon bulbs. I just do not know how to make it
Low beam is H7 and high beam is H1
What headlights are these from Amazon?

They come with bulbs and everything?
Yes
how is the quality of the light down road at night? are they better than stock halogen? i bought a different set and they are very dim at night
I think they are pretty good! But I can't remember if they are better than the stock ones
What is the bulb u used for the low and high beam bro?
Spyder you say as I hope so & not knockoffs. Seen similar ones but not ones that have the white running lights at the top & bottom.
Along with Amber turn signals at the top and bottom as well sick!! I have the OEM on the 17 Focus SEL.

Hey could you tell me the diameter across of the headlight projector lens? Trying to figure out if I could retrofit it with an HID lens.
It's hard to get an exact measurement because I can't get my tape right on it, but I'd say it's about 2.5 inches in diameter!
Whats the name of the new headlight ?
Do the DRL strips work like factory? ie engine on, light switch to off, and the LED strip stays on?
Yes they work like factory!
@@WintersReviews awesome. I've only seen them on the SE in my area and they don't normally come with drls so they're not wired for it so I was never able to get clear answer
Any issues with them fogging up inside or having water inside? I am seriously considering these
Nope! I haven’t had any issues with that! They are still completely clear. I also sued Meguiars Headlight coating to keep them from fogging.

@@Rebecca_The_Dragon yeah of course, should like you've got it pretty figured out! Hope you enjoy them as much as I have!
i wonder how is the headlight quality and how long do they last ?
So far they have been great and nothing has went out!
Can you put LED lowbeam bulbs in these? What size are the bulbs?
The low beam is an H7 so I would imagine you can put LED in if it is a H7. I have not tried
I think the other connector may be for the projector high beam.
These look wicked cool, nice purchase and upgrade
Thanks!
Would these work on uk models? We drive on left of the road and right hand drive
I would think so, but I honestly have no idea.
What brand are these and where did you get them?
They are Spyder brand and I got them on Amazon
Anyone know how to make the low bean and high bean led?
What do you think of retrofit Head lights ?
Is that a brand or are you talking about putting headlights in that aren’t made for the car?
@@WintersReviews I mean installing a xenon or bi-xenon projector into a reflector based halogen headlight

Love them
My focus is black too and the only ones on amazon are the chromes ones.. :(
Oh no that sucks! Try carid.com that's where I got mine
@@WintersReviews they don’t even got the acanii ones. They’ve got the Sounders but the signals aren’t as cool on them and they’re like an extra $120
@@robertgardner4508 ahh dang! Maybe if you wait a month or so and check again
$600 for one headlight unit!?!
Yeah! It's Crazy
