What is the model number of the Ford Mondeo fog light?

Ford Mondeo front fog light model is H3. The function of the fog light is to make the vehicle visible to other vehicles in low visibility conditions such as fog or rain, so the light source of the fog light needs to have strong penetration. Generally, vehicles use halogen fog lights, and LED fog lights are more advanced than halogen fog lights. The following is the classification of automotive lights: 1. Headlights, combined headlights are located at the front of the car, mainly serving the purpose of lighting and signaling. The light emitted by the headlights can illuminate the road conditions in front of the vehicle, allowing the driver to drive safely at night. 2. Combined taillights, combined taillights are located at the rear of the car, mainly serving the purpose of lighting and signaling. 3. Turn signals, used to indicate left or right turns to other road users. Regulations require them to be amber. 4. License plate lights, mainly used to illuminate the license plate.
I remember replacing the fog lights on my 2017 Mondeo, and after a lot of effort, I realized the factory-installed ones were H11 halogen bulbs. Just a heads-up—fog light specifications can vary across different generations of the Mondeo. The fourth-gen (2013-2020 models) mostly use H11 sockets, but some fifth-gen (post-2022) variants switched to the smaller H16. When replacing them yourself, first crouch down to check the fog light position—the newer Mondeo’s fog light grilles are extremely narrow, making it hard to even fit gloves during installation, so you’ll need short-handled specialty tools. If you’re upgrading to LEDs, double-check whether the driver can fit into the tight space behind the housing. Last time, I bought a set of trendy LED lights, only to find the heatsink was too large to install.
