Freaking awsome Rival, I'm jelous too I want the LCI look too, but all the confusing on getting the Adaptive Xenons to work with the LCI has scared me off. Maybe you'll find out more and fill us in as you research more and more

If anyone else is attempting these I can give them the plugs you need for the LCI headlights. You simply pay me for the shipping of the parts. I have some of these plugs lying around from when I used to use the bits for the rear tail-lights.

This is awesome, well done on a great project.
I'm looking forward to seeing the DIY to see how much work is involved, I want to get started on mine!

Tkx man! Didn't know you doin' the retrofit 'cuz I saw you got Xenon on your sig.

Yeah the OEM retrofit is a lot plus when I studied the retrofit manual I found out even wires for ride/load level are not present so did you get the auto-leveling to work?

I'm trying to gather my info to make DIY ... since I'm doing most of the stuff by trial some of the stuff are nowhere to be found ...
No auto leveling. The guy who sold it to me did the mod, so its pretty much plug-n-play for me.

So rival you've got the Adaptive headlights to work on the LCI headlights? So if i was going to do the project i would have to purchase the ALC Adaptive Xenon headlights right?
