Orion V4 will require no rewiring. Directly plug and play.
You will simply code the new LCM to accept these lights.

Thanks umnitza. From the description on your website I'm still not clear on a few things. I understand they are for pre lci that are fitted with standard factory halogen but are these headlights xenons/bi-xenons designed to be a plug and play upgrade for these cars and if so will the current manual levellers work?

I got a set of OEM Bi-Xenon LCI if any one is interested, just needs tabs, all ballast, bulbs, etc included.

The bixxenon is setup so that it's prewired to work with the high beams. Therefore everything that currently works, will continue to work. But if you program for xenon, then it will be difficult wiring but still work.

Ok so as they are with the optional V4 angel option. It'll take H7 for high beams and D2S bulb for low beam that have been converted to xenon with ballast that is included as standard?

If you select the option for the FXR, they will take the D2S.
If you do not, they take H7.
The FXr is the bixenon option.
We can bulid them with EVO-X for no extra charge.

Any pics of these actually on the car? Who makes this version? And which projectors stock? How does this version compare to the previous version I bought way back when?

Originally made by DEPO.
Projectors are standard DEPO projectors unless we modify them.

This is different in a few ways. The previous version was essentially a halogen light that we custom fitted FXR into them. This is a ready made bracket assembly for angel eyes and Xenons.

Here are some comparisons between the two:
