LOL How do you keep finding these things?? Not seen this thread before, epic work!  :thumbup:  I wish I could do all that wizardry, it would have been worth getting a VCDS cable if I thought I had a hope. 

Eddie - is that just a 2hr timer or is there something more complex going on?

What are the benefits of that Eddie? Can't say I like the design as much as the standard one.

Nice, I thought that might be what the sensor at the front was for. So it automatically activates full beam above 37mph, if appropriate?

The benefits are:

 

Looks better in the styling department

The bit behind the mirror has the camera for High beam assist

I've driven the car twice now and it is amazing, how it reacts to other cars. who needs xenons when you have HBA

Yes, although you can adjust the speed threshold for it with vcds

For some reason I couldn't spec HBA with xenons but does this mean it's a possibility Eddie?

I had understood that HBA was halogen only, but happy to be corrected :)

Obviously I can't say if it will work with your car

 

But when I fitted the mirror which has its own module: Address 20 High Beam Assist

 

I had to code it and one of the coding options was Halogen or Xenon

Extra Button, the only let down is there is no dedicated button for this feature
