Single Xenon to bi-xenon conversion. Help...

[vw1997]

hi, i have the single xenon headlights. My question is, will my new bi-xenon headlight fit straight in without changing the ballast? will i need different bulb type?

That won't work as your second image is for the facelift model A3.

I'm afraid without doing the facelift conversion you're stuck with your single Xenon.

what will i need to do the conversion?

thank you

From memory - new wings, new bonnet, new slam panel, new bumper and possibly some other gubbins and a lot of time and money.

Have you already bought the new headlamps?

[vw1997]

yes i have, my audi is a 2003 8p. what year model will i have to upgrade?

[Guest 2]

Oh dear I assume you have a double grille model then?

That requires even more £££ as your CCM may not support Bi-Xenon so you may need a new one of those too.

Should've done your research mate before buying.

No problem if you ever want to sell those headlights I might buy them as I have a facelift and fancy an upgrade.

Only of course if the price is right
