This short video guide shows the entire procedure necessary to replace the dipped beam bulbs on our third-generation Ford Focus, produced from 2011 to 2018. First, remove the headlamp by unscrewing the two screws that hold it in place, then pull it out of its housing.

Next, remove the rubber cover of the bulb as shown in the video.

Once done, grasp and rotate the bulb counterclockwise a quarter turn to remove it from its socket. Finally, disconnect the old bulb from the connector and insert a new one, then reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
