Hello i have a mark 6 fiesta ist basic with no electric windows also don’t have a central locking and button for the tailgate my question is ist possible to put a button for the tailgate and what is the procedure because every time i have to unlock the tailgate with key and is not very comfortable thanks 🙏
What an absolute ball ache. So glad I watched this before I tackled this
What a very clearly filmed and narrated video. Better than most. Good comment about the engineering by Ford. They could make it easier to change bulbs if they wanted to. Blame the design engineers.
Ford are more "cost conscious" than others!
Changed bulbs in a couple of cars now but this was an absolute nightmare… I thought nothing can top my focus but this just did. Thanks for the video, managed to not break anything off and everything working. Top tip for those who do it, when you dismantle it, just change everything to new 🤣
A top notch instruction on a consumuable issue. Many thanks ahead of winter drives.
Very helpful. I used this video to change H4 bulb for my car.
Have to say this video is really helpful
I've just had to order 2 new headlamp casings as my old ones failed on MOT
I've watched this 4 times and even finding out what type of screwdriver I'll need is a big help so thanks 😊 👍👍👍👍
Well done in making a balls of a job look easy. Been putting it off for weeks to change headlight bulb.
well done mate...Nice and simple explanation not a 30min talk and skipping to see what to actually do
Man,thank you so much for this video! I just managed my change in the dark yard of my friend who luckily had had the right screw driver. But without this video I was entirely lost. The guy who sold me the bulb was not less confused with that system. 😅😳
Thanks for the help going to do my sidelight tomorrow once I get the bulb
Brilliant, very helpful video.
Just changed the headlight bulb on my mk6 Fiesta.
It was all going so well, until it came to putting it back in.
Half an hour of stress later, and by pure luck than judgment, it slotted home 😓
Could never have done it without this video though.
Nice one 👍🏼
Headlights all changed thanks to this cheers mate
Great video - just helped me replace my bulbs. Cheers mate !
Thanks for the feedback George.
I'll be having this video queued up on my tablet in a few weeks, when my new set of replacement headlights comes in for my wife's Fiesta. Fingers crossed it's as simple, if not necessarily easy, as you make it look. Thank you!
Awesome. This job is probably best described as 'awkward'
Great video, my old lady is ready to face the dark nights again 💡💡
To reach the screw behind the bumper cover I used an L Allen key for excellent grip.
Thanks again for your guidance.
Sweet. Thanks for sharing
Yours was a much better video on the unit removal and you did the harder side which was great too. I didn't know why Ford did it that way either that you have to remove the WHOLE unit just to change a bulb!!!
Thanks a lot mate, very useful
Excellent video!!
After watching this great video - I thought I could do this! I could replace a H4 headlight bulb by myself - what could go wrong? Well, taking the headlight assembly off was the easy part. What was incredibly difficult - was removing that wire clip! It was next to impossible. Eventually, after broken fingernails and bleeding finger tips, it flung open. I removed the old bulb, inserted the new one - and put everything back - AND secured the light assembly tightly back into the car! It was only then that I realised - I had FORGOTTEN TO ATTACH THE RUBBER CAP!!! Aaarrgghhh!! Yep - it all had to be removed again....
Easy and understandable thanks
Thanks for your information
TOP, Thank You, I´ve done it already 😀
Excellent Video. Thank you
Very well done. Thanks a lot
Very useful video and helped me alot. Thank you.
You're welcome, thanks Akeem!
Brilliant video. My clip is missing.
Like you say the headlight sort of rolls out and back in.
I used a 1/4 drive ratchet and torx bit to undo the screws (no extension).
hi cyd, a very good video with step by step instructions( haynes 2 out of 10) well done !!!!
Glad it was helpful.
hi cyd,thanks much for reply to my comment, re--headlight bulbs , have since renewed both headlight units!! like you mentioned , can be a fiddly job, old lamps scratch/ internal haze!!!next job might be renewal of rear brake shoes, again this is a job where you must remove the drums to inspect the old shoes nb---- can work out expensive in 2006 fiesta mk6,, however while trying to remove the centre axle bolt i noticed the 30mm nut has a strange type of sealed over six point washer covering the nut ( shouldhave gone your route & undo the four bolts on backplate ) that was very good video ,,,!!!! thanks //regards neo@@CycloneCyd
Great video. Can you replace headlight bulbs with LED equivalents?
Very helpful.
Thank you you’re legend 👍
Excellent 👍 thank you
Thank you
Great one, thanks m8
No problem Kapow
Which front indicator bulbs do I need for the Mk6 facelift please? The ones I can see online age amber but I think they should be clear? Thanks.
God almighty thought I'd be able to fit it myself. But Not. Great vid. Thank you. Off to Ford kerry I go.
Have you any idea on how to change the headlight motor?
I've bought some face lift headlights for my pre face lift feasta mk6 and there's 3 wires cut in my main headlight how do I take the centre out to get to the wires plz
Quick one, the headlights you have there I’ve just bought for my Ford fiesta finesse 2005 hatchback. Will they fit?
I can't tell you how much this video helped someone who's not good with his hands like me...thank you Sir. I didn't even have the proper tools, I used a butter knife as a screwdriver 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good work. 👍
Thank you so much your video helped me. It must of been a German who designed this car.
Even worse, Ford USA!
They are very good cars. But who ever designed it didn't think about the people who have to work on then.I've sold mine last month
I warmly thank your clarity and conciseness.. our 06 wonder had sadly this evening popped a bulb...lets try to do a full set of bulbs one time for effect.
Chard Waves Sincerely.
Did you manage okay?
As you spoke so I fiddled..yet the LHS is happily complete...RHS not yet...I found the loom holding that side too tight to turn away from the bumper cover...the bulbs ok..so will turn to our local Diesel Electric shop should it require.. good morning to you from Chard
Life saver 🤣
Ciao chiedevo come si toglie le calotte specchietti esterni Ford Fiesta Mk6 TCDI S
For once we have someone who gives GOOD CLEAR CONCISE information on how to do a simple job, He makes it look simple with no bullshit, Thank you for a VERY helpfull video.
The Bulb Size Type For This Fiesta Is H4 Bulb 60/55WATTS 3 Pin. I Recommend Bosch or Osram Long Life Or Ultra Long Life. they last long time.
Where do you recommend for getting OEM Ford Fiesta parts? Thanks
If you can find a ford dealership with a parts department they can order them for you. Not cheap though!
Once I did it at night in the rain
I managed to change the passenger side headlight bulb without removing the assembly but the driver side has zero space to put your hands in. I can never get the bloody assembly back into the car once I have removed it, annoyingly my partner can do it
yeah, it is awkward to get back in.
Nice1
👍👍
Yes...I guess I don't need lights on my 2004 Ford Fiesta
So I have to take half the car apart to replace a blown sidelight bulb 😂. My one is the model after this with the slimmer looking lights
Absolutely agree with you - Rubbish piece of engineering - what a pain in the xxxx and as you say no chance of replacing at the roadside
I'm thinking of getting a mark 6 fiesta. Are they reliable?
No better or worse than any other similar car. getting one that's been looked after is the trick.
I've got a Mk6 fiesta, 2006 model and its a lovely car, in great condition on the body/ underside and a very smooth drive, so i;'d recommend them, as is said below, find one that has been looked after, always check the MOT history when you look at one and see if its riddled with failures year on year or not
Super reliable. The engine is indestructible only is some issues with the external plastic parts they kinda get loose after a time.
Our s has been apart from the low cost clutch slave at the pedal.
Great vid, I know from experience that removing the headlight is easier than putting it back. Love the car but like you said, rubbish piece of engineering.
Init just. It makes a mockery of the need to carry spare bulbs in some countries.
Why do they make it so difficult to replace light 💡
Headlight should be easy removal
What an awful job! Manufacturers need to be held to account that bulbs may be changed without tools
No to ford
To change a bulb wtf don't buy the car this is taking the piss
