european ST170 headlight install


so, it’s been a long time since i’ve done an exhaustive post about my car. and, for good reason — it’s been a long time since i’ve done significant work on my car. well, wait no longer.

i’ve purchased a set of headlights that come from the factory on the Ford Focus ST170 model in europe. they have a separate low/high beam, an integrated turn signal, and a black colored housing. i’ll get into some detail about the process, but for the impatient — here’s the before/after:
