Glad to hear the consensus seems to be that it works though
I had it on my focus. 99% it’s spot on but on occasions it gets confused. Red studs at the roadside can make it think it’s the rear of a car so they dip. Occasionally I had to override them when really reflective road signs fooled it into thinking it was a car approaching.

However I used them every time I went out. They very rarely blinded oncoming cars.

They work perfectly for me. The first time I had them was in my Fiesta Active. No one mentioned that it had them and I'd not seen it before, I thought it was voodoo when my lights dipped before I could do it manually the first time.. I had that for two and half years and it never let me down. Now I have it on the Puma and it's one of those things that are on the must have list going forward.

Fixed means full LED in front. It is an option.
There are LED DRL and low beam as standard.
You can launch configurator in Ford's polish site, it's well described.

Because "Do I buy a hybrid or non hybrid" is also in 'Introductions'.
And it was my first post here.

Just taken delivery of a new Puma. The old one had the same dipped and main beam lights.
The new one has the bright dipped beam but the yellow tinged main beam.
Is this right?

Depends what model you have. The Vignale has full LED dipped/mains but with other models this is an optional extra.

i have the same on my ST-line X loving the auto high beam feature, enable high beam like using a dimmer switch ( might make the bulbs last longer)

Hi just received my Ruby Ltd Ed, which is nothing short of amazing.
Unfortunately I didn't go for the Full Led option, and it's true that when in full light, that yellowish tint is a bit disappointing.

Apart from from trying to upgrade with better bulbs, would fit in aftermarket FULL LED unit work, or it needs to be done at the factory?
I searched online and it looks like I can find FULL LED units (although they're quite expensive)
