Head Automatic HID adjustment

marky3d · 24th July 2007, 19:36

I have a type r plus (same as UK's GT but has sat nav and bluetooth by default) and I bought the HIDs at the stealer.
As I know the 5 door EX also has HIDs but it comes with the HIDs out of the factory so it must have automatic headlight adjustment and headlight washers.
Is there a way to buy some 3rd party headlight adjustments or even install original headlight adjustment from the EX?

If The Stealer Fitted Hids Then You Should Also Have The Auto Adjuster Part? Or Has He Just Changed The Bulbs?

It's illegal to have HID and not have auto levelling and washers. There is a thread on this somewhere giving the detailed points.
To fit the auto levelling you'll need a big wire harness and revised rear suspension with the sensor attachment.

AfterMarket Xenon/HID Kits?

Mc Hammer, how much would that cost?

And yes, the dealer fitted just bulbs with ballasts. I know it is illegal

In my last 4 or 5 years of various car forum membership, no one has ever gone ahead with fitting the full kit to make aftermarket HIDs legal.

By the time you add all the wiring and ballast kits, and rip out all the non-auto adjusting stuff, add the washers (and replace the bumper so that the washers have holes to come out of) the £800 that Honda / Audi etc charge for the upgrade looks like a really good price

Has the dealer really fitted a full blown HID system - with the big capacitor and everything?
I'd have thought that was a big job in itself, even without the washers etc

nope, the dealer fitted some 3rd party HID kit proboably bought off ebay... they did not even present an option like complete HID from an EX...
now I am trying to make it semi legal... I really do not care about the washers because spraying every time you try to clean you windows sucks... I would really like to have some auto adjusters... So I am asking if anyone knows any 3rd party system or how much would the original EX auto adjusters come at the stealers.
