"Retrofitting" xenons

Featured Replies

Ive been thinking about this for a while now and ive finnally found a set for sale however i do have some slight reservations!

1, I do realise to have them without headlight washers is illegal

2, I think you have to have a self leveling control unit or somthing.. is this right?

3, Can it even be done, are they just plug and play??

The lights on my fabia are really poor ive tried the brighter bulbs and they are not much better to be honest. (in my experience)

I really dont want a HID kit, i dont like the way they look under the bonnet. i beleive they are clamping down on them in the near future. And im a fan of the standard equipment.

What do we think?

Cheers

Is this the set on Ebay?

They were on ebay, cracked lenses he hqad them up at 280 then 200 this time i was going to wait till after the auction and make him a cheeky offer but sombody beat me to it anyway!!

I've always wondered - could you just put a T piece into the piping for the front window washers, feed it down the bonnets inside and out through the grill (hidden of course), and point it at the lights, and claim it has washers? I mean, mine has 'proper' ones, and all they do is make the dirt wet - only time it's of use is when I go out to clean them with a cloth or whatever.

Levelling is another issue though!

What about self leveling rear shock absorbers?

The lights themselves don't have to be self leveling according to the information from VOSA or wherever it came from. Depends if you can get them for a Fabia though I suppose.
