Ford Windstar Headlights
If your Ford Windstar’s headlights are damaged or they have stopped working, you may need to replace them. The bulbs within these headlights come in many different sizes, ranging from H3 to HB5. They are available from a large variety of brands that include Ford, Wagner, Sylvania, and ICBEAMER.
What are the different types of bulbs within these headlights?When choosing a pair of headlights for your Ford Windstar vehicle, there are several different types of bulbs available for you to select from, each of which works in a different way.
- Halogen: These include a filament that uses ductile tungsten and are known to be small and lightweight in size. They do not use mercury and have an accurate color temperature when turned on, making them appear closer to natural sunlight when in use. They are designed with durability in mind and instantly go to full brightness when turned on without any time delay.
- HID: These high-intensity discharge headlights are known to use only a small amount of energy when turned on and provide a clear and striking white light when in use. They are also efficient and can be used in foggy weather conditions.
- LED: This type of lighting is known for its efficiency as it uses hardly any energy from the battery in your car. They are also friendly to the environment as they are free of any toxic materials and can be recycled. These lights are not made of glass, which makes them durable, while they can also stay on for hours without becoming hot to the touch. Due to the accurate light disbursement of these headlights, the light will always be displayed properly when the headlights are turned on.
When you are considering the selection of one or more of these headlights, you should know that different headlights fit into different Ford Windstar model years. While some of these headlights are designed to fit on only one model year, others can be fitted onto a range of model years. For instance, some of these headlights are compatible with all Ford Windstar vehicles from 2000-2004. When you are searching for the right headlights, you should first know the exact year that your Windstar was released onto the market.
Which lights are included with these models?When you select one or more of these headlights for your Ford Windstar, they include two different types of lights, referred to as low beams and high beams. High beams are designed to be turned on when there are no streetlights on the road, such as on rural or mountain roads, due largely to the fact that these headlights are brighter than the low beams. They can also be used on open highways when no other cars are around. As for low beams, you can turn these on in poor weather that limits visibility, when driving in the fog or rain, when driving at night, or when road signs highlight an upcoming "daytime headlight zone.”
