Headlights OEM FORD or OEM Mazda
First thing I did when I bought mine was swap out the dim eBay halos for some stock replacements. Still in there 12+ years later!
Pros: long lasting, reliable
Vehicle:
Mazda
Hey there. Wanted to comment on this as I noticed the same thing on my '22 when I bought it.\n\nThis is normal. DO NOT TAKE THEM APART!\n\nWhat you are seeing is the line between the high and low beam LED arrays in your headlight. The new design in '22 made big improvements to the headlight performance and this line is a result of that.\n\nI agree it is somewhat distracting but the new design having more LEDs available for the high beams makes a huge difference in how well they light up the road when they are on.
Pros: more LEDs available
Cons: somewhat distracting

I don't know how ford managed to do it at this price point but these headlights are astonishingly good. I took a maverick out for a test drive at night and with the low beams, I was lighting up 3 lanes of traffic. My wife has a gle 350 with the high performance headlights and I can confidently say the headlights in this truck are comparable with the benz. The led reflectors throw the light quite far and the low beams are nice and bright as well.
Pros: astonishingly good, nice and bright
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
It\u2019s a nightmare when I drive my 5 at night\u2026 being so low and everyone driving SUV\u2019s the lights just wreck me constantly! Sitting at lights I basically have someone firing a torch directly into my rear view mirror.
Cons: lights wreck me constantly
Vehicle:
Mazda
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.
Pros: drain holes from factory
Cons: painful process, difficult glue
Vehicle:
Ford
I had a FiST '14 in the past and the headlights were like two candles. I am in Europe, so I had Euro headlights. I've tried both reflector and projector headlights, without big difference. I've also replaced the bulbs with different options that helped but too less. Unfortunately the headlights on the Fiestas are really bad comparing with other vehicles.
Cons: poor light output, really bad
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
I drive a Mazda2. The sheer joy of having those big "trucks" behind me at night is amazing. I need sunglasses at 8pm because those fuckers are brighter than the sun. Cop it in the side mirrors and the rear view mirror.
Cons: brighter than the sun
Vehicle:
Mazda 2
I hate that my 2016 Focus needs to go to the dealership for recoding just to replace the damn headlights.
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
The headlights (non-hid) are quite possibly the worst design ever made.
Cons: worst design ever made
