Will MK8 LED headlights Fit?

[Motobro116]

I have been doing some looking around for an alternative for new headlights in my 2019 Fiesta ST USDM. I was Curious if any has attempted or completed a headlight swap to the newest LED headlights that seem to only be in EU. Main concerns are fitment and functionality. Any info people have on this would be great and open to ideas about other aftermarket LED headlights.

It baffles me that people have this question in their minds lol.

The car is a completely different design and shape. Different fenders, bumpers, etc. No it will definitely not fit lol

There are options however for other headlights. Quick search on eBay will lend you some options... however they are expensive there. If it’s the LED running lights and projectors that you are after you could always do the euro projector swap. Search here in the forum to find more info on that. That can be done for around 400-500$. If it’s the shape you want to change you can add headlight armor from people like ACEP stylings to adjust the overall look (eyebrows etc)

The others have stated appropriately though, MK8 will certainly not fit. Totally different vehicle.

I am an original founder of the internet and one of the first websites ever was an enthusiast forum for the Ford Tempo / Mercury Topaz. I remember a guy posting his upgraded headlights project which consisted of retrofitting mk4 Jetta headlight bases into the Ford Tempo housing. This forum seems to no longer exist. Yes I owned a Tempaz at some point in my life. So to answer your question, maybe.

TLDR: maybe.

Was it an ‘enthusiast’ website or an ‘endurer’ website?

If you're after the jewel-eye projectors specifically (I like them too) you should start researching custom headlight builds and how to DIY. Lincoln MKZs had the jewel eyes, Acura started the trend, and is the reason you might actually find some info on a "jewel-eye build", but aside from that, the only other upgrade option is the euro mk7.5 projectors (single round projector in each) with LED DRL or pay someone an extravagant amount of money to build custom lights for you. No joke, paying someone with enough experience and expertise to build custom lights in our housing shape might put you out thousands of dollars. Oddly enough the aftermarket for these cars is non-existent compared to others. So, TL;DR, No. Your only options are custom or euro.

Whoosh sells the lights that were in the Euro cars. They're nice, but not cheap.

If I could afford these I would buy them in a heartbeat.

They do look awesome. If I were to change my headlights, I'd do that, but it's just not in the budget.
