I would like to congratulate the D!ck cheese who put the design together. I have never had to take out a battery to change a headlight globe, and thanks to my 2nd CAI I had to remove the airbox too, but there prolly wasn't enough room anyways to do it even without the CAI.It nots hard, but what a lot of sh*te to do to change em! Gone are the days that you could do it at the servo when you noticed a blown headlight!What do they expect, the wimmen drivers to take it to Ford service and pay for some grease monkey to change a globe? More money for ford I spose.What a load of Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/19300-headlights/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the one behind the battery too..... Last time I ever offered to replace a globe in a BA!
