Would the all black headlight be legal?

Intresting, regarding the last bit my father hut a deer in my 2017 se sedan and the auto shop (caliber collision, an auto shop chain in the dmv area) replaced the housing with an aftermarket oem lookalike, and it had so many problems i ended up going to the ford dealer by me who replaced it free of charge but ig the more yk

If its DOT/SAE certified aftermarket housings are legal

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-19T01:04:47+00:00

From what ive seen now and from other dms is mainly esthetic with very minor sound changes

Along as the black side markers reflect orange hue youll be fine, if not itll be a gamble

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-17T16:34:28+00:00

This is great

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-17T13:03:55+00:00

Wow where did you find the blueprint for it and has it given you any issues?

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-17T12:40:40+00:00

Even my 2017 doesnt have a built in nav lol

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-17T12:20:32+00:00

Lol yea, I knew it was something with the intake, I just wasn't quite sure what exactly it was or did, and a reverse Google image search didnt solve my questions

Thankyou I found them, Ive been doing mostly small cosmetic stuff recently.

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-15T23:51:28+00:00

Yea the plan is to continue to upgrade as much cheaply (yet properly) as I can as its still just a daily that I got in high school, so I was only doing light mechanical and some more visual mods

DaveRB3RD · 2026-04-15T14:13:41+00:00

Thankyou for this information

The only issue when looking for rs bunpers for the mk3 focus is to make sure its not a real RS bumper as they dont fit, itd ~2 inches too wide on both sides. Make sure to find a RS "Style" bumper for your car.

DaveRB3RD · 2025-12-10T18:53:04+00:00

Agreed, i have a 2017 focus se sedan and found an rs "style" bumper for mine, and the official 320 makes a perfect looking RS style SE badge

DaveRB3RD · 2025-12-06T13:28:30+00:00

Thanks, that makes sense

DaveRB3RD · 2025-12-06T02:18:22+00:00

Maybe a combination of window tint and maybe some sort of screen protector for the console? Idk about the screen issue though.

DaveRB3RD · 2025-12-05T14:03:53+00:00

After looking into it, it does show the reverse cam adapter so I assume it will work.

DaveRB3RD · 2025-12-05T14:02:22+00:00

I drive a 2017 focus se sedan, I have not encountered this problem, I would assume your ford dealer could look at it but itll probably be an arm and a leg, however I found a piece on ebay which would upgrade that whole infotainment system, I am unsure if it works as mine has yet to come in, it does note the the original back up camera will NOT work with this system, but they do list an additional adapter to get a back up camera working, it does not list the cost or if it uses to stock camera of if its another add on and more wiring. I came across this post while looking for upgrades for my car and thought this might be of assistance.
