how to tell if you have xenon lights?

Featured Replies

Just a quick one, is there any easy way to see if I have xenon lights fitted to my vrs or not?

ta :)

You won't have a headlight height adjustment thumb wheel on the dash.

And you will have headlamp washers.

To me this is the easiest way.

Shame. OEM fabia xenons are awesome.

can they be retro fitted and if so how and where to get the bits?

not entirely sure what the differences are except the lighting is supposed to be far better

I believe it is REALLY expensive to retrofit these, and by law you'll also need to have headlamp washers (with new bumper for the holes) together with a larger washer fluid reservior, and all associated plumbing/electrickery.

It's a nice idea, but too pricey I'd reckon. Wish mine had them too.....

Do a search, it's been covered.

In a nutshell however, to retrofit OEM Xenons would require a lot of cahs and a lot of time/patience and probably not be worth it. To fit a xenon aftermarket kit wouldn't be as good and as these are not legal in the UK would mean it's a bit pointless especcialy and most people who have tried them have all remarked how bad they scatter.

The difference between standard Fabia headlamps and OEM Xenons is staggering. The Xenons are not really any brighter but give you far more definition and far more range. They also look stunning.

As Decron says, it's been covered.

very recently actually, and as said, very expensive to retrofit, compared to the £500 option from the factory.

Not really worth the cash to retrofit i'm afraid.
