LED Projector conversion question
#16
#17
All the pieces seem to be here now. Conversion LED's arrived today, and the pass reflector housing had to be exchanged as there was a nice smudge-gerprint on the interior chrome reflector.
Usually my dealer lets me keep the defect parts, as ford seldom wants the minor stuff back. I was hoping to have a spare to practice on in the oven, but he said this one has to go back.
So no later than this weekend, we'll see what we can screw up.

Not going well. I opened up the drivers housing last night, only to realize that the threaded part of the projector diameter is too large to fit through the light bulb hole. I thought since I have already sacrificed the housing, I'd just drill out the rear to increase the diameter after a bunch of depth measurements. Once that was done the projector rear fit through, but with the bezel attached to the front of the projector unit, it ends up being jammed, and compressed in the reflector opening, likewise the reflector gets bowed out.
Apparently these projectors and bezels are not for these reflector housings. Since this is the only LED projector option they give for the 05-07 headlight housings, I'll be calling them on Monday. Looks like they will have to be returned.

I did actually. Haven't driven at night to aim them, but they appear to be a massive improvement.
