Will LCI halogens fit into my Pre LCI car?
Hello,
The question is in the title. For those who have done the pre-lci halogen to lci halogen conversion, do they fit nicely or would I need to do more to make them sit well?

The headlamp assemblies are going to physically fit just fine, but the wiring isn't going to work out of the box.

Yes they will. I have done it to my car last summer. You can buy an adaptor or can hard wire it, thats what i did. There is a diagram which tells you which wire goes where from the car to the lci harness/plug. Search this forum for the conversion as i got all my infro from that post. Good luck!

Thanks for the quick reply.
For the angel eyes, did you code out the error or did you use a resistor?

Yes, i have used a wirewound 10w 15ohm resister which is been going good so fare. I forgot to say that my car had halogen, so the conversion was from pre lci halogen to lci halogen. If you have xenons it might be different.
