Johnny Mo Posted November 7, 2014 at 01:58 PM Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 at 01:58 PM I'm referring to these http://www.xenondepot.com/h11-h8-h16-philips-Ultinon-LED-Bulb-p/12834unix2-h11.htm Hey Dan - no not the LED's - I have this kit (installing this weekend) HID Xenon bulbs with ballasts etc.. http://www.xenondepot.com/H11-HID-Kit-Xtreme-HID-p/xt-h11.htm The LED's i got are for the parking light/DRL it's a 194/W5W wedge bulb. Also from Philips - I got the CANbus error canceller as well, but I will see if I actually need it before I open the package...I'm happier knowing that the majority of th eparts are Philips and not some cheap crap. I've used XD before and was very happy with their product. And for $200 to upgrade to legit (minus the auto leveling) HID's is a no brainer.

Johnny Mo Posted November 9, 2014 at 08:16 PM Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 at 08:16 PM So.... the install didn't go quite as planned. front bumper removed, test fit and test light up everything...looks great. Start working on the wire routing to keep it super clean and unnoticeable to the untrained eye. Get eerything buttoned back up (with the exception of the PIAA Ion Crystal Fog bulbs - wont be in until Tuesday) Get everything back together - start the car and absolutely nothing...no parking lights, no HID's. Car off - everything works fine - start car - no joy. Waiting to heear back from Xenon Depot to see what the possible solutions are - I have the CANbus error eliminators installed - but I got nothing...so now I have no car to drive at night until I figure it out and either uninstall and live with the halogens, or fix it or replace the headlights with a full blown HID set up from the Mondeo Europe. 2015 FFE Ti - White Platinum/Black.

Rexracer Posted November 10, 2014 at 04:18 PM Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 at 04:18 PM Johnny, that stinks! Good luck on finding a resolution =\ Is it possible you pinched a wire on re-assembly? I'm referring to these http://www.xenondepot.com/h11-h8-h16-philips-Ultinon-LED-Bulb-p/12834unix2-h11.htm Those are interesting. Is it just replace the bulbs and you have LED lights? OH I see, these are for FOG lights only. Well when they get the headlights working, doing both would be great. Would love the lower energy usage of LED.

Dan's Energi Posted December 11, 2014 at 03:18 PM Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 at 03:18 PM (edited) Wow, I hated reading that. So, is everything up and running now? LOL, I was about to order them but logged in here first. I think I'll wait till we're both home for a few days in case we need to have parts over-nighted too.

Not a big deal, since I ordered my Mondeo conversions. HotLap - ordered from theses guys thelightingfirm.net lots of positive feedback on 2gfusions.net on them and the stuff they make looks killer. hopefully get them soon - was hoping for a Christmas present but looks like it'll be in Jan beffore they arrive.

I got mine from them and they ran a extra wire to connect to fuse box to run as DRL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping i'm not the guinea pig, but I am expecting it should work straight up plug and play to the factory harness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mo Posted April 3, 2015 at 12:46 PM Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 at 12:46 PM A couple of teaser pics until I have time to wash it and get some nighttime beam pattern shots and switchback shots... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homegameroom Posted April 3, 2015 at 04:14 PM Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 at 04:14 PM That looks great! I ordered my headlights (just like yours) from TLF in January- still waiting on delivery of them... Johnny Mo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
