A gorgeous day for this late in the season here in Michigan and I want to be outisde as much as possible today.On a funny note: Had a headlight go out last night , and wanted to change it this morning. Thought it might be a 30 second job. HA....This job is on a Ford Focus 2004 and I had to remove a splash shield, the grill, the entire light houseing, just to get to the burned out bulb.I called my brother who is a mechanic, and told him I had a headlight out on my focus, and he laughed. It is never good when he laughs when I tell him I have a car repair. He told me it is a B*T** of a job, and it was.Why do car manufacturers do this to us?
Ahhh, I remember the good ol'e days when you simply looked behind the light, pushed down the pin, turned, and wa-la, there was your burned out bulb. Well those days are gone as long as I am driving this Ford Focus. hahaDont believe me that it was that difficult? Look it up on yahoo. Ford focus headlamp removal. What a trip.I had to do the passenger side. The drivers side? Gawd, you have to also remove the battery on top of everything else I already listed.
