Title: Headlights
Post by: djdigitald on April 17, 2013, 10:12:29 AM
OK i have got myself a set of Projector Headlamps for my 2000 Seat Alhmabra and was thinking of getting a set of HID's for them. Question is will my Aly have the Canbus system so would i need to get a set with Error Correction?

Any help and guidance would be appreciated.  ;D

How have you got projectors? The canbus system won't like the HID kit but it should still work, that said its illegal and will fail the MoT - not to mention unless the projector housing was designed for HID it'll dazzle other road users. Plus you'll need levelling and washers...

My mate is breaking a 2008 Alhambra which has them, can get the bumper and all needed extras as well. It did have HIDs originally so they were designed for the.

Awesome, should be a fun retrofit :)

The rear levelling sensor has a rivited plate so you'll need to drill that out, also the washer bottle itself is MUCH bigger (9L vs 3.5!) As for the xenon's themselves, what's missing from the assembly??

At the moment i have just got the Headlights, as far as i am aware everything else is still on the vehicle ready to be stripped.
