    Best example for 3 jobs on the wing mirror in my opinion. Good view, not rushed and no risk. Good Job

    Thanks so much. I found I could use a flat bladed screwdriver to unclip the indicator from the inside without removing the mirror. Replaced indicators for dynamic (swish, swish) ones in a black colour-coded housing.

      Thanks. Yes, that could work too. The video was made before I found out I could just remove the cover to install the new indicators too.

    Really helpful video, thanks for the upload. A van smashed my wingmirror light in two this weekend. I've just finished replacing it now with help from your video 👍

    After watching this, I looked into strobed wing mirror lights and wow, they are amazing. Fitted them yesterday and look very nice. Already been asked about them twice. I would reconsider

      I might do them next when I replace the bulbs as they are losing their orange colour.

    Hi mate very useful as always, talking of which, I can't find a video anywhere which show's the removal of the rear fog and reverse light lenses. I have got new one's for mine, but haven't a clue on how to remove them. A future video for you maybe. Thanks for all your other video's.☺

    That was really helpful thanks. My driver's side mirror indicator lens and bulb somehow got broken in exactly the same position as yours did, it didn't happen during driving, very strange, it was such a specific spot, almost as if someone took a hammer and chisel to it. I was a bit wary of breaking the plastic clips, but the bulb and lens replacement went smoothly, now working again. Thanks very much. I also had a mirror spider! 😂

    I shouldn’t need to remove the mirror and the blue case to put a new on BACK on should I??? 🤞🏻

      No, not needed but I only done it in the end for demonstration purposes

    Great videos - have you ever considered changing the auxillary belts? Focus with AC has 2 stretch belts I have heard they are difficult to change thanks

      Yes, it is something that I would like to do at some point in the next few months.

      @@GentilsGarage Thanks I would very much appreciate this as there isn't any good videos how to do this even though ford supplies tools in order to do this but these can be expensive so I would be interested how you would do it. Once again great videos

      The Bulb 501 you can buy anywhere that sells cars parts. The lens you can get on eBay, like I did.

      The objective of this video is also to show how to change the bulb, so there was no point of destroying it
