Ford Kuga 2013: How to improve high-beam headlights?
Asked by Ron Jones
I have been on to Ford Australia for advice about the poor, bordering on pathetic, high-beam lights on my 2013 Kuga. Talking to the dealer, I only got vacant looks and no response. Ford Australia only offered the usual gobbledygook of complying to Australian Standards — what I wanted was advice as to what was the best way to improve the high beam. I was thinking high-intensity discharge or LED driving lights. Is this feasible and where would I be able to get genuine advice on this? The low-beam lights are adequate but high-beam is bordering on dangerous for open road and freeway driving.
