Headlight Upgrade?? Is it possible

Featured Replies

Hey guys! Thanks for welcoming me to the forums.

 

I am exporting my UK registered Fabia 5j (2010) into France.

I therefore have to change the headlights for Right Hand Traffic units.

 

My car currently has the H4 reflector type headlights and I would love to upgrade to the H7 type headlights. I think they look way nicer and are more readily available on the second hand market.

 

Has anyone successfully done this "upgrade"? Are the connectors the same? 

 

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure it's possible. and even if it is H7s are a performance downgrade even if they "look more pretty".

It's more about the cost of the parts than the look to be honest. The H7s seem to be more readily available and for less on the second hand market 

Welcome.

 

The Fabia Guide section is always worth looking through if you have the time, maybe the thread is in there.

@Naths vRSdid the guide i think when he fitted the Black Pack lights on his 2010 Mk2 vRS which was one of the first in the UK as a Media car and had the clear lenses.
