Headlights OEM Audi or OEM FORD
Neighbor texted me today that my passenger headlight is out… anyone have a headlight go out on their Mach E yet?
2021, 57,000 miles. VERY happy I didn’t delete the extended light coverage on my ESP from Granger Ford.
One headlight on the Bronco sport is over $1000. That alone is reason enough to have the extended warranty.
Though in my opinion, it's not the best looking Audi headlight. Although functionally/technologically inferior to this, my vote goes to B8 A4 HID headlights with that curved row of individual LEDs. It was characterful, and had exquisite design elements inside of it that worked in harmony with the lines that travelled around the car. Headlights in cars of that era were simple and boring and at best consisted of a round projector and another reflector for high beams plus indicators. B8 A4's HID lights were at a totally different level and shouted style and luxury. With these lights Audi started the game of DLR and using it as a design signature.
Peak Audi headlights are the S5 B8.5 headlights.
So peak that even aftermarket headlights for other cars call them "Audi style headlights" just like the Ferrari style or Lamborghini style headlights.
They are so iconic and unique that you see them and you immediately think audi.
Crazy smooth. Not as much pick up as the X5 (because of the electric part of the engine) I was looking at first but once the turbo kicks in it sound and feels great. Turbo lag is a drag. By the way I did the headlight upgrade. Definitely worth it
I honestly like these more than my C7.5 RS7 headlights. They are almost identical but the way it curves upwards on the inboard sides is nicer.
The C7 headlight design is the absolute peak in headlight design, not just Audi headlight design.
So, I opened my headlights on my 17. It is like others have said a painful process. Main reason is because the factory glue sealing the headlights is very difficult to melt, I had to bake my lights for quite a while to get it to loosen up. And even then the factory glue is basically impossible to get all the way off. Putting it back together isn\u2019t bad, I know some people have condensation issues but I\u2019ve never had any issues with that, plus from the factory there are already drain holes/air holes in the housing anyways.
I bought expensive Audi headlights on AliExpress. However when parcel arrived UK I had to pay additional £107 for import duty - so looks like seller Dint lower item price down. Second issue is I took car to the garage in order to replace headlights. Garage replaced them, but issued me the report. That headlights is bringing two errors to the dash board: Right hand side day time running light and left hand side day time running light. Plus second report that light pattern is for left hand drive and it's a critical issue and MOT failure. So seems to me that seller send me the wrong lights.
I constantly get flashed by oncoming cars in my Ranger and it's not high beams. It fucking sucks. I asked at the service and they said nah standard angling.
