This thread is about converting halogens to Xenons....

If you want to know what halogen bulbs to use, you need the:

Hi everyone,

My new headlamps came today! I'm installing these on Sunday, cant wait. And those asking me how much, I paid $690 + postage. But it cost a bit more for me because they only built me the one set for RHD and as I said in an earlier post they only ever have built for LHD and have a 10 unit minimum order. So I had to pay extra for the special 1 off make. I'll post more when I install them.

Nice one, Spyder.

Did your car come with Xenon standard?

No - these are built for halogen fitted cars. Just pop back a few pages to find out more.

Looks great! What's the built quality like? Do they do it for other cars (i.e. Polo/Jetta)?

Hi everyone,

hey spydar mate ya gotta help organise these RHD ones for us.. im in definately if it can be organised

[DoggieHowser]

NICE!

OK that's one problem addressed.

2. Does this use a "white" bulb or is it a real Xenon system?

3. I don't suppose this supports the auto swivelling dynamic cornering, does it?

Frankly if it is a real Xenon I am already sold, so... how do I get one!?

[SMOK3Y]

its just a replacement for halogen so i doubt it is "xenon" but you could run HIDs or normal halogen globes. and i very much doubt it swivels for cornering

[Corey_R]

If those photos show the "entire kit" then obviously they're not going to turn in the corners OR move up and down, let alone provide washers.
If they are Xenon or HID, they're still 100% illegal in Australia....

id still say they are electric height adjustable just be made for halogens. and to be honest corey who cares if ya run HIDs in them they are a Projector beam so whatever.... 99% of people on car enthusiast forums would have something which is illegal on their car this is what an enthusiast does, probably even yourself..

[Corey_R]

Who cares?
All the other poor drivers coming the other direction who constantly get your beam in their eyes every time you go over a bump. Hence why HID headlights are dynamicly auto-leveling...

[SMOK3Y]

youve got a high & mighty horse you sit on hey corey...

[nat225]

a hyundai driver got annoyed once when i was driving behind him up hill.. i was driving a 2006 accord euro lux with factory HIDs. he stopped on the side, let me pass and then put his high beam on behind me.

but just a word of advice, say there was an accident and the other party, his lawyer or the cop somehow managed put a blame on the glare of the headlights.. legal costs could mount up to $,$$$ and frequent in and out of courts..
