Pre-LCI Halogen to Pre-LCI Bi-xenon AHL
5 Attachment(s)
March 2012, I purchased a pair of dynamic, Bi-xenon headlights to replace my halogen ones. The set was already a steal at $510 but they also came with the xenon and adaptive control modules! I successfully coded VO 522 to my car and had been using the headlights for two years without adaptive functionality. I recently thought. What the heck…it would be nice if the auto leveling and adaptive features also worked! So. I started my research….

hi! xonreh
It is a very good job! I am also working to retrofit adaptive headlights. Now, most functions is working properly. Two questions here · Did you follow the connection of 71 & 72 PIN fromPT-CAN? · Did you follow the correct connection of the LIN-BUS 16PIN from RLS? It does not establish a complete action If you do not do this connection? Thanks! |

Running the wire - I didn’t know the length of the wires for each run to various places so I just ran the cables and cut them to the length I wanted. My biggest issue was running wires to the passenger headlight. I decided to remove the air filter housing and open the fuse/adapter box beneath it. Using the old ‘hanger tied to the wire’ method, I pushed the hanger thought to the fuse box. I then poked a small hole through a rubber protective cover from the fuse box and pulled my wires through to the headlight and tire well. There was nothing tricky about running the other wire, just a lot of work.

Do gheh bake much difference to vision at night? Lots of twisty mountain roads on the island I live on thanks |
Hey,
I know this is an old thread but does someone still have those documents or guides on how to retrofit bi-xenon AHL? I would like to have a diagram of how the headlight level sensors need to be wired and what is needed to get the adaptive headlights to work. Thanks. |
