MY06 conversion to MY07etc Bi Xenon headlight conversion

Postby mattmcc22 » Wed Jul 16, 2014 10:27 am

I like the look of the post facelift headlights with HID, and I am wondering if there would be any difficulties in fitting them into my pre facelift spec B. Would there be any major difficulties, they look like they would be the same size. And would it be legal as they are the stock, just for the year model after mine. My friend just finished his auto electronics apprenticeship.
Thanks for the help

You will need headlights, front guards, front bumper and grill...along with some electrical control circuit knowledge.

There may be other parts required as well.

As Ryan said headlights, guards, front bar, grille, brackets, radiator and ac condenser, front wiring harness, relays from the donor car for hid (including fuse box section), inner guard liners, washer bottle and motor (one unit)

Will take a full day with splicing into the loom

To make the auto adjust function work, you will also need left hand (passenger side) front and rear control / trailing suspension arms for the auto leveling sensor

Hmm seems pretty hard/expensive as I havn't really done much work on cars before, I might leave it until down the track. Thanks for the help!

You could do a post facelift conversion with guards, non-xenon headlights, grill and front bar and then just install xenon's into the headlights. Will look the same (without the headlight washer) but easier (I assume) to do and you'll get 95% of the result your after.

Could I just install xenons into my current headlights. Or is that not a smart move? I have seen some people mention that you should only put xenons in certain types of head lights or something. Please pardon my naivety.
