Mikula Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) So, I really don't love the look of the "triangle" lights on the bumper of the gen 2 edge. I'd rather have the straight style like on the gen 1 edge. I'm thinking of blacking out the triangle lights, and fitting the gen 1 lights into the slots horizontally underneath the current triangle drl's. anyone have dimensions of those lights, so I can begin trying to sort out what lights I may be able to buy, and just swap out connectors and rewire? Notice the horizontal slots underneath the current lights. They are just a plastic removable bezel, and I think I can most likely cut to fit something else in there. even something as cheap as this may work https://www.amazon.com/iJDMTOY-Universal-Daytime-Running-Lights/dp/B00HCSBQ7Y anyone have dimensions or other thoughts? Also, does anyone know the watts/amperage of the stock lights so I can get something that is a close match to factory my secondary reasoning is because I'm in the process of building a cold air intake, and one of the best places to locate it seems to be exactly where the current DRL is located on the driver side. lots of room for me to build some tubing to get air directly into the air box.

1004ron Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 I can't offer too much advice here, but can tell you what I saw when one of my signature lights was replaced, it is a bulky fitting that included the black trim (bezel) pieces.

enigma-2 Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Chuckle. Seems only a couple of years ago, the topic was how to add these lights. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/19338-2015-ford-edge-se-front-bumper-oemaftermarket-light-install/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Halstead Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 buy the SE base block off for the signature LEDs, as someone who owned a 2013 Edge, I can tell you, they will not fit in the slot. Someone on here actually put some DRLs in that spot already. I've actually photoshopped it also, in tons of different ways. I'd look into adding Morimoto MODPODS, that was my idea.https://www.theretrofitsource.com/led-accessories/daytime-running-lights/morimoto-mod-pod-mini-led-lights.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer something not as bright, so it doesn't act as a fog light, or off road light, just more of a "here I am" light, similar to the OEM set-up, but less ugly (hopefully) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark kely Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Hi,sorry to ask but how did you install the ST badge on the lower grill? I ordered one on Amazon but I just noticed that there is no access behind the lower grill, did you have to remove the bottom engine cover? Any help would be appreciated.

Hey Mark, You might not get a reply. Mikula's group label says "banned" and it doesn't appear he's posted or replied to anything since May of last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
